Luka Doncic Probable Against The Knicks
10 months agoDallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (nose) is expected to play on Thursday versus the New York Knicks. The 24-year-old took an inadvertent elbow to the face from Kyrie Irving during Sunday's game in Philadelphia. He was able to play on Tuesday and began the game with a protective face covering. However, he quickly got rid of it, and it's apparent his nose wasn't giving him any problems, considering he finished with 35 points, 18 rebounds, and nine assists. Nonetheless, there's still a chance Doncic won't play, although he'll likely be out there. But if he isn't, Kyrie Irving (thumb) will take over duties at the one, with Josh Green and Tim Hardaway Jr. in line to benefit the most from a statistical standpoint.
