Luka Doncic Likely To Play In Monday’s Contest
Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (quad) has earned a probable designation for Monday's game versus the Rockets. Doncic was unable to suit up Sunday due to the injury, although it's unclear if the team was merely playing it safe with a back-to-back on tap.
