Did Luka Doncic snub Paul George on their jersey swap on Sunday? Some were left wondering that after their conversation ended oddly.

George’s Los Angeles Clippers beat Doncic’s Dallas Mavericks 126-111 in Game 7 of their first-round playoff series to advance to the conference semifinals. George and Doncic had a nice conversation and embrace after Game 7. Toward the end of their conversation, George took off his jersey as if he were ready to swap with Doncic.

However, Doncic didn’t complete the swap.

Presuming George was looking to swap jerseys, it’s possible Doncic reminded the Clippers star of COVID-19 protocols. The NBA hasn’t wanted players swapping jerseys during the pandemic. Kyrie Irving and Bam Adebayo tried to do it back in January and were stopped, but they found a way to make the exchange after leaving the court. Doncic and George will probably do that, too.

Either way, the two stars shared a nice moment of sportsmanship following a tough series between their teams. The Clippers lost the first two games of the series but rallied to win it. They also became the only team to win at home in the series when they won Game 7.
