Rookie Debut Clash

Warriors rookie Yaxel Lendeborg made his professional debut against the Lakers.

Lendeborg's Respect Loss

Lendeborg said he lost all respect for Luka Dončić after trading trash talk.

“I lost all respect for him because of his behavior on the court.”

Foul-Baiting Incident

Lendeborg drew a technical foul for calling Dončić's pump-fake foul 'weak ass s, -'.

“You get the foul call. Congratulations, bro.”

Luka's Response

Dončić answered with a 48-foot halftime buzzer-beater before laughing at Lendeborg.

“C’mon, dog. That shit is weak.”

Coaching Reaction

Steve Kerr called the technical 'kind of ridiculous' and blamed rookie treatment.

“I thought the single technical was ridiculous.”
