Luka Doncic remained secretive about any potential trash talk directed at his rivals during Sunday’s game.
Doncic contributed 33 points, 7 rebounds, and 5 steals, leading the Dallas Mavericks to a 116-107 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas. This win put Dallas ahead 3-0 in the best-of-seven series.
Toward the end of the match, Doncic approached Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards and was seen saying something.
When TNT’s Allie LaForce asked him about his remarks during the postgame interview, Doncic chose not to divulge the details.
“I can’t say,” he replied.
He acknowledged that what he said was not suitable for a television audience.
After notably trash-talking Rudy Gobert following a crucial moment in Game 2, Doncic likely sought to avoid further scrutiny.
The Mavericks aim to complete the series sweep in Game 4 at their home court on Tuesday. Historically, no NBA team has overturned a 3-0 deficit in the playoffs.
