Luka Doncic Questionable On Monday, In Danger Of Missing Third Straight Game
4 months agoDallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (heel) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Doncic is dealing with a left-heel contusion that's caused him to miss each of Dallas' last two games. The 25-year-old has played at an MVP level when healthy this season, but multiple health issues have caused him to miss eight games. The Mavericks have still performed valiantly without him, going 6-2. With Portland in town on Monday and with a Christmas Day matchup against Minnesota on deck, it wouldn't be surprising to see Dallas rest Doncic one more time. If he's out, expect Spencer Dinwiddie to get another start. Dinwiddie has averaged 17.0 points and 6.5 assists in each of the last two games. He'd make a viable fantasy option against the Blazers.

Luka Doncic Iffy For Tuesday
2 weeks agoLos Angeles Lakers point guard Luka Doncic (groin) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's showdown against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He has been added to the injury report with a right groin strain and may take some time off to rest as the Lakers begin another back-to-back on Tuesday night. LeBron James (groin) and Austin Reaves (ankle) are also on the report as questionable, so the Lakers' bench may have a big role to play against the Thunder.

Luka Doncic Unavailable Thursday Versus Bucks
4 weeks agoESPN's Dave McMenamin reports that Los Angeles Lakers point guard Luka Doncic (ankle) will not play against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday. Tonight's game is the second half of a back-to-back set, and Doncic will sit out to manage his right ankle sprain. He finished with 31 points, nine rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals across 32 minutes in a 120-108 victory over the Nuggets on Wednesday. With Austin Reaves (ankle) also sidelined, Shake Milton, Gabe Vincent, and Jordan Godwin will likely see an uptick in minutes and scoring opportunities than usual.

While Doncic's shooting efficiency was awful, with him hitting 5-for-20 from the field, he still nearly collected a triple-double with 20 points, nine rebounds, and 14 assists.
