Warning: Story and video contain coarse language
Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic had a hilarious response to a heckling fan during the team's dominant, series-clinching victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves in the Western Conference finals.
After drawing an and-1 to push the team's lead to 36 in the middle of the third quarter, Doncic turned to a fan and appeared to say, "Who's crying, motherfucker?"

He also kept looking at a fan who was waving a handkerchief at him in the first quarter - a reference to the 25-year-old star crying for fouls - according to Ben Golliver of The Washington Post.
Doncic scored 20 points in the first quarter, helping Dallas take an early 16-point lead. He finished with 36 points, 10 rebounds, and five assists. The Mavericks will now face the Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals, which begin next Thursday.
