Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Dončić has had his second technical foul of the season rescinded by the NBA, according to a report from USA TODAY Sports.
The league office reviewed the technical foul assessed to Dončić and determined it did not meet the standard for a technical infraction. The rescission removes the foul from Dončić's record and avoids any potential suspension that would have been triggered by accumulating a certain number of technical fouls during the season.
Dončić, who joined the Lakers in a blockbuster trade earlier this year, has been a central figure in the team's offense. The decision to rescind the technical foul comes as the Lakers navigate a competitive Western Conference standings race.
