“Y'all d*ckriding bro”: Alleged audio reveals Bol Bol’s frustration with NBA refs after Victor Wembanyama foul call

Phoenix Suns forward Bol Bol expressed his frustration with the referees after being called for a foul against the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday night.

With the Suns having a double-digit advantage against the underperforming Spurs, Frank Vogel gave Bol Bol minutes in the second quarter.

This was also done to match Bol Bol with Victor Wembanyama for size on the perimeter and inside the arc, meaning Kevin Durant did not have to guard him and run the risk of picking up fouls.

However, Bol ended up picking a foul instead. As Wembanyama drove to the rim from the high post, going left, Bol Bol defended him vertically while moving his feet. However, the referees opted to call a foul.

The foul gave Wembanyama a chance for a 3-point play, which would've otherwise been a tough shot over the 7'3 Bol Bol with under four seconds left on the shot clock. After the foul was called, Bol Bol allegedly told the baseline referee:

“Y’all d*ckriding bro, I get it.”

Here's the video of the aforementioned play:

Closer look at how Bol Bol helps the Phoenix Suns this season

The Phoenix Suns have bolstered their playoff rotation with the additions of Royce O’Neale and Thaddeus Young. However, the emergence of Bol Bol presents an intriguing prospect.

While the veteran signings addressed immediate needs, Bol's potential impact could elevate the team's championship aspirations to new heights.

Bol Bol's recent surge has not gone unnoticed, particularly by Phoenix Suns superstar Kevin Durant, with whom he shares a close relationship.

Durant said of the fellow 7-footer:

“He’s been more than I expected. His intangibles, his work ethic, his IQ, all the stuff that I didn’t really think about when it comes to Bol, that’s the foundation of his game.”

The confidence in Bol Bol's abilities predates his recent standout performances. He showcased glimpses of brilliance before a foot injury temporarily sidelined him. However, his breakout game against the Rockets has solidified his position as a key contributor in the rotation.

The added length he brings in closeout situations has been lacking from the Suns' "non-center" positions in previous seasons.

His adeptness at seamlessly fitting into lineups featuring either Nurkic/Eubanks and Durant simultaneously injects a dynamic into the Phoenix team that renders them formidable.
