NBA says Doncic was fouled, but it wasn't called, late in Lakers' Game 4 loss to Minnesota

  • The NBA announced Monday that referees missed a foul on Luka Doncic in Sunday's Lakers-Timberwolves game.
  • This missed foul occurred with 33 seconds left while the Lakers were down 114-113, one of two late uncalled fouls Sunday.
  • In the other game, Josh Hart fouled Tim Hardaway Jr. on a three-point attempt as time expired in New York's 94-93 win.
  • Had the foul on Doncic been called, he would have shot free throws with a chance to tie or take the lead.
  • Minnesota then stole the pass, made free throws, won 116-113, and took a 3-1 series lead before Wednesday's game.
