Mavs' Luka Doncic yells at Celtics fan after hitting three pointer in Game 2 of NBA Finals

It's been a hot start to Game 2, and Luka is let one fan sitting courtside know it.

DALLAS — In addition to airing every game of the 2024 NBA Finals on our station, WFAA is also hosting a special presentation called "The Pregame" before every matchup in the series. Head here for more information.

Game 2 of the NBA Finals started off with a bang as the Mavs led 28-25 after the first quarter. 

Mavs star Luka Doncic put up 13 points as he went five for seven from the field and 2-for-3 from beyond the arch. One of Doncic's three pointers came with a fiery exchange between him and a Celtics fan sitting courtside. 

While it's currently unclear what provoked the exchange, Mavs fans have taken to X to encourage more fan exchanges as they feel this will only help Doncic's game. 

If you've watched Mavs games in the past, you know this is not an abnormal occurrence. Doncic has been known to feed off of negative energy he gets from opposing crowds, and Boston could be the most hostile of all. 

Later in the game, Celtics owner Wyc Grousbeck taunted Doncic on the sidelines, according to The Athletic's Celtics reporter Jay King. He responded by drilling a three and gave it right back.
