Is this the reason Lil Wayne is frustrated with Luka Doncic?

His performance never disappoints the fans since Luka has a great way to do offense. There are some people, however, who get annoyed when he challenges the opponent. By taking advantage of the rules, he gets free trips to the line.

As for Wayne after this, he got a lot of fans trolling him for his actions. There were even some who said: “About Time Someone Call His Flopping A** Out”.
