Spencer Dinwiddie Accuses Controversial NBA Official Tony Brothers of Calling him a ‘b*tch a** motherf**ker’ During Game Against Raptors
Protecting their home court, the Dallas Mavericks extended their winning to 3-games post the victory over the visiting Raptors. As expected, Luka Magic was on display again, notching his 8th consecutive 30-point game since the start of the season and joining the likes of Wilt Chamberlain in doing so.

Nonetheless, the Wonder Boy from Slovenia did get help from his teammates, especially Spencer Dinwiddie, who scored 21-points on 47% shooting from the field. However, the former Nets guard created more noise post-game in a controversial accusation against veteran official Tony Brothers.
