Lakers star Luka Doncic will miss Monday’s matchup against the Washington Wizards after being assessed his 16th technical foul Friday. The suspension is tied directly to the league’s technical-foul threshold.

Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic has been suspended for one game and will not be available for Monday’s contest against the Washington Wizards.

The suspension stems from Doncic receiving his 16th technical foul of the season during Friday’s game. Under league rules, reaching that total triggers an automatic one-game suspension.

Doncic’s absence will leave the Lakers without one of their central figures for the upcoming matchup with Washington.
