‘Been Waiting To Say That for Years,’ ‘Jaxson Hayes’ Slovenia Visa Just Got Revoked’ — NBA World Reacts As Ex-Laker Calls Luka Dončić a ‘Flopper’
Luka Dončić’s playstyle continues to draw flak from around the league. Jaxson Hayes appeared to call the superstar guard a “flopper” during the Los Angeles Lakers’ 132-123 road win over the Utah Jazz on Sunday, taking a jab at his former teammate as Dončić poured in an NBA season-high 52 points.
Jaxson Hayes, former Los Angeles Lakers player, has just had his Slovenia visa revoked, drawing reactions from NBA fans and media alike. The controversy stems from Hayes reportedly calling Luka Dončić, a two-time NBA scoring champion, a "flopper" during a recent game. The jab came as Dončić scored a 52-point masterpiece, earning his 10th 50-point game of his NBA career and cementing his status as one of the league's elite players.
Hayes, who recently converted to Slovenian citizenship, further fueled the fire by engaging in trash talk with his ex-teammate, a move that Dončić didn't shy away from countering. The exchange highlights ongoing tensions in the NBA, with fans debating whether Hayes' comments were warranted or simply unnecessary taunting.
