Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic says he feels like he's letting down Kyrie Irving after the team's loss to the L.A. Clippers.
Luka Doncic said after the game that he needs to do more and admitted he feels as if he's letting Irving down with his current level of play.
"I just got to help him more. I feel like I’m letting him down, so I got to be there, I got to help him more. He’s giving everything he has and he’s been amazing for us the whole series," Doncic said of Irving after the game, via, provided 29 points of his own, but shot just 1-for-9 from three-point range. He struggled early on as the Clippers built a big lead, and was seemingly less than pleased with his performance in the Game 4 defeat despite contributing a triple-double.
The 25-year-old thanked the fans for helping rally the team after it fell down 31 points, and took responsibility for the sloppy play that resulted in things getting so out of hand in the early going. "The fans were amazing. Kept supporting us when down 31. They kept supporting us so really gave that to the fans ... We have to start the games better, especially me," added Doncic, via Afseth.Coby White is set to return and says he dodged a bullet in a nasty fall vs. the Indiana Pacers
