On Thursday, we were treated to one of the most unexpected moments to unfold at an NBA press conference in recent memory thanks to the moans that interrupted Luka Doncic’s postgame session, and it appears the culprit has been identified.
The Dallas Mavericks were hoping to bounce back on Thursday night after losing the first game of their second-round playoff series with the Oklahoma City Thunder, and they were able to do exactly that with the 119-110 victory on the road to tie things up at one game apiece.

It’s also unclear where the moaning in question was sourced from, but if I’ve learned anything during the far too much time I’ve spent on the internet, there’s probably somebody on Reddit who will be able to figure it out by the time Game 3 kicks off on Saturday afternoon.
