LA Clippers’ Montrezl Harrell is under fire for calling the Dallas Mavericks’ Luca Doncic a “b***h a*s white boy” during Friday’s NBA playoff matchup.  

What happened

After an intense play during Game 3, Mav’s guard Doncic received a technical foul for tripping Clippers’ forward Harrell on a run from the basket. They exchanged heated words and had to be separated by officials.  

Trash Talk

Harrell body checked Doncic out of his way to make an impressive basket, despite being double teamed. As Harrell back peddles away, he can be seen yelling the slur to Doncic.  

Backlash

Sports commentators called out Harrell for racially charged trash talk. ESPN host Jay Williams said: “I can only imagine if Luka Doncic had something like that to you, and it got caught on tape. I can only imagine during Black Lives Matter how much of a big deal that would have been.”

Charles Barkley

The former NBA player told Harrell: “You don’t get to have a double standard.”

Reaction

Larry Elder blasted the NBA for the lack of action against Harrell for his words. 

Call for suspension

Outkick’s Gary Sheffield Jr. says the solution is for the NBA to suspend Harrell for the statement to “send a message that race-based derogatory comments like his on the basketball court won’t be tolerated.”

Coach’s words

Clippers’ coach Doc Rivers was quick to downplay Harrell’s comments: “I don’t think there was anything racial intended. But we are in a very heightened climate and you have to be careful. Trez was the first one to say that. He said, ‘I didn’t mean that racially.’ And I said it doesn’t matter. It’s what’s perceived … make sure you do the right thing.”

Apology

Harrell apologized to Doncic on court at Sunday’s game, tweeting that he has “nothing but respect for Luka, he understood the heat of the battle and he said it didn’t bother him.”

Reaction

Doncic commented that emotions are high during the playoffs, “Sometimes you say things you don’t want to say.”

Game Winner

Luka won Game 4 of the Clippers-Mavericks playoff match up with a 28-foot buzzer beater on Sunday.

Actually, they can and do all the time. It’s the spineless cowards who make the rules, and then bend them for blacks because they’re afraid of them.

The problem here is there is a double standard. If the roles were reversed it would not be up to the players for the apology. The white player would have been suspended and possibly fired. Whereas since a black guy said the racial slur,,,,, it’s my bad, oops.

Typical coddled , over paid , under educated Black racist ! Nothing will happen to that THUG …. they never have ramifications for their racist slurs or their bad behavior. One set of rules for White people and no rules or blacks, because officials and judges and companies are afraid of them ! Pathetic !

A white player would have been suspended already. I am getting so sick and tired of the hypocrisy and double standards exhibited nearly daily by those who lean left.
