"Come on! Come on! Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? He didn't even get hit in the face! Take a look at this, folks. I gotta show it to you. Take a look at this."
"So, that left arm from Dort, that swings back and hits Jokic in the face."
"I don't even think the officials saw it until Jokic went down!"
During a Thunder-Nuggets game, Lu Dort was called for a foul on Nikola Jokic after making contact with his face. Jokic fell to the ground holding his face, triggering a flagrant foul review. FanDuel Sports Network analyst Michael Cage immediately accused Jokic of flopping, insisting he wasn't hit in the face. However, the instant replay clearly showed Dort's left arm swinging back and making forceful contact with Jokic's face. Cage fell silent as the replay contradicted his accusation, and announcer Chris Fisher provided commentary on the contact. Cage then attempted to recover by suggesting officials didn't see the contact until Jokic went down. The officials ultimately upgraded the foul to a flagrant foul.
