The Dallas Mavericks were given some great news on Monday when the NBA announced that it would rescind a technical foul ruled against Luka Doncic.
This decision meant that Doncic would not be suspended for a game and would be able to help his team during their game against the Indiana Pacers.
Obviously, that is nothing but great news for the Mavericks, who are currently sitting outside of play-in contention and may miss the playoffs unless they play some spectacular basketball in the weeks ahead.
Draymond Green of the Golden State Warriors commented on the league’s choice to rescind the foul.
After posting the news on social media, Green commented: “I’m a big Luka guy but this is funny,” followed by a series of laughing emojis.

Green knows a thing or two about technical fouls.
Always a hot head, he has faced dozens of them throughout his career and has missed multiple games because of his conduct on the court.
Does his comment mean that he thinks the league is being unfair because they have so rarely rescinded calls against him?
Green and his Warriors haven’t had a lot of good luck lately and are sixth in the West.
That’s a stark difference from last season when they became champions of the league.
For the season, Green has averaged 8.5 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 6.8 assists a game.
The Warriors and Mavericks aren’t set to face off again during the rest of the season.
That means there is no chance of Doncic receiving his 16th technical against Green.
