Dennis Schroder Faces Three-Game Suspension for Confrontation with Luka Doncic In a heated incident following the Sacramento Kings' loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on December 28, guard Dennis Schroder was involved in a confrontation with Luka Doncic. The tension escalated as Schroder and Doncic exchanged verbal jabs throughout the game, with Doncic referencing Schroder's decision to decline a four-year, $82 million contract extension with the Lakers a few years ago. After the game, the situation boiled over as Schroder left the visitors' locker room and approached Doncic in the tunnel outside the home bench. The NBA has found that Schroder attempted to strike Doncic, leading to a 40-minute delay as security intervened. Lakers center Deandre Ayton attempted to separate the two players. As a result, Schroder has been suspended for three games by the NBA, including their upcoming matchup against the Lakers on Monday night in Sacramento. The incident marks a dramatic turn in the rivalry between the two teams, and fans are eagerly awaiting the next installment of this intense matchup.
