Chris Paul can expect to hear from the NBA after giving referee Matt Myers a technical foul late in the Warriors’ 109-99 loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday night at American Airlines Center.

Paul argued for a foul call after he was hit while chasing down a loose ball on offense as the shot clock was running down.

Myers assessed a technical foul to Paul — while Mavericks forward P.J. Washington Jr. also signaled for a T to be given to the veteran Warriors guard.

At that point, a fed-up Paul reacted by making the technical foul signal in Myers’ face.

Paul, starting in place of an injured Steph Curry, finished with nine points on 4-of-12 shooting from the field. He also had four assists and four rebounds in 31 minutes.

The 18-year NBA veteran likely will be lighter in the wallet, but with his $30 million salary this season, he can afford what’s coming from the league.
