WNBA Team Minnesota Lynx Groundlessly Rip Luka Doncic On Twitter
Luka Doncic easily was the most decorated rookie in NBA history. In the season before his NBA rookie season, Doncic won the EuroLeague title and the Spanish League title with Real Madrid, as well as the EuroBaskets with his native country of Slovenia. He also became the youngest EuroLeague MVP, EuroLeague Final Four MVP in history and the youngest player to ever be named ACB Most Valuable Player (Spanish League MVP).
We guys, over in Europe, already knew he will be special before he was drafted, and it only took a handful of games to convince the rest of the world that he is legit.
At the end of last season, Luka rightfully won the Rookie of the Year trophy. To raise much needed awareness for the WNBA, Doncic now was part of a video that congratulated WNBA Rookie of the Year, Arike Ogunbowale, who plays for the Dallas Wings.

Acknowledging the achievement of a fellow athlete?! Scripted or not, there is nothing wrong with that, at all.
Well WNBA team, Minnesota Lynx, apparently don’t feel that way and threw some major shade at Doncic on Twitter. This is beyond stupid.
