Luka Doncic didn't take too kindly to Moe Wagner's bravado Saturday night.

Doncic and Wagner got into a verbal altercation during the Mavericks' 108-92 win over the Magic, resulting in double technical fouls. The interaction began when Orlando rookie Jalen Suggs drove toward the basket and was fouled by Doncic.

Suggs' shot went in, and Wagner promptly got in Doncic face to celebrate it. Doncic gave Wagner a light push then followed after him, having to be separated.

Doncic continued to be upset, shouting at Wagner from across the court and mimicking a crying motion toward him.

"Who the f--k are you?"
