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.

Luka Doncic (ankle) is expected to play through a right ankle sprain on Wednesday against the Denver Nuggets, as the team lists him as probable for the contest. He also played through the injury on Monday versus the San Antonio Spurs. 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. As
LeBron James (groin) continues to sit, Doncic will remain the Lakers' main man on Wednesday in a fascinating matchup.

LeBron James (groin) sidelined, Doncic has teamed up with
Austin Reaves to form a highly potent offensive duo. The two combined for 61 points and 14 assists in Sunday's 107-96 victory.
