Injury Report: Luka Doncic's Status vs. Clippers Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic has received an injury status vs. the LA Clippers

JANUARY 9, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Listed as questionable Doncic (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Clippers.

Impact Doncic was sidelined Sunday and is questionable for Tuesday's matchup due to a sore left ankle. Each of his previous four absences this season have come during the second half of a back-to-back set, so barring a turn for the worse, it's safe to presume the MVP candidate with be back in action against Los Angeles. Over his past nine appearances, Doncic has averaged 38.8 points, 10.7 rebounds, 9.1 assists and 1.8 steals in 38.6 minutes.

Injury Report: Thunder Favored Over Mavericks on Sunday in Absence of Luka Doncic Oklahoma City will face a Mavericks squad missing its key contributor on Sunday in the Paycom Center.

JANUARY 8, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Sidelined Sunday Doncic (ankle) has been ruled out in advance of Sunday's game in Oklahoma City.

Impact Just as Doncic hinted might be the case following Saturday's 127-117 win over the Pelicans, he'll end up missing his fourth game of the season Sunday while he tends to a sore left ankle. Doncic's absence Sunday likely has more to do with the Mavericks playing the second half of a back-to-back set than any concern about the injury being a long-term issue, so fantasy managers shouldn't have too many qualms about keeping the MVP candidate active during the Mavericks' upcoming four-game week. Spencer Dinwiddie will likely see more time on the ball in Doncic's stead Sunday, while players like Tim Hardaway, Christian Wood and Jaden Hardy could see heightened roles as scorers.

Impact The ankle issue likely isn't a major concern, but with the Mavericks heading into the second half of the back-to-back set, Doncic looks like a strong candidate to receive his fourth game off of the season. If Doncic is ruled out ahead of Sunday's contest, Spencer Dinwiddie, Tim Hardaway and Christian Wood would likely take on most of the offensive burden on the top unit, while rookie Jaden Hardy could be thrust into a higher-usage role on the second unit. Doncic turned in another strong all-around showing in the victory over the Pelicans, notching 34 points (10-23 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 11-15 FT), 10 rebounds, 10 assists and one block across 39 minutes.

Good to go Saturday Doncic (ankle) will play Saturday versus the Pelicans.

Impact Doncic was initially termed probable, which positioned him to play despite some left ankle soreness. He will indeed suit up and will look to get back on track following an off night by his standards Thursday, finishing with just 23 points on 7-of-23 shooting from the field and 0-of-6 shooting from beyond the arc.

Probable Saturday Doncic is probable for Saturday's game against the Pelicans due to left ankle soreness.

Impact Doncic snapped his streak of six consecutive games with 30-plus points by posting 23 points in 31 minutes during Thursday's loss to Boston, and he's dealing with an ankle issue following the matchup. However, he doesn't appear to be in significant danger of missing time against New Orleans. Over his last nine appearances, the 23-year-old has averaged 37.1 points, 10.2 rebounds, 8.8 assists and 1.9 steals in 37.3 minutes per game.

NBA Debate: How does Mitchell's 71 compare to Kobe's 81?

Struggles in second half Doncic totaled 23 points (7-23 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 9-11 FT), nine rebounds and three assists over 31 minutes during Thursday's 124-95 loss to the Celtics.

Impact Doncic looked like his usual, spectacular self in the first half with 20 points on 6-of-15 shooting from the field to go along with six boards and two assists. However, the Mavericks guard couldn't buy a bucket over the final two quarters, going just 1-of-8 with three points as Dallas fell to the Celtics and snapped its seven-game winning streak. Doncic still managed to record a team-high 23 points but also failed to knock down a three in the contest for only the second time this season and is just 1-of-15 from beyond the arc over his last two games.
