Luka Doncic of the Dallas Mavericks drives to the basket against Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of the Oklahoma City Thunder during the second quarter in Game 1 of the Western Conference second round playoffs at Paycom Center on May 7, 2024, in Oklahoma City.
The Dallas Mavericks will be without superstar guard Luka Doncic for at least a short period of time.
ESPN’s Shams Charania reported Thursday morning that Doncic has sustained a right wrist strain, and the team will re-evaluate his playing status in one week.
Doncic was out for Sunday night’s matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder, missing his first game of the season with a right knee contusion, but scored 26 points in Tuesday’s win over the New Orleans Pelicans in NBA Cup play.
The Mavericks’ next game comes Friday night in Denver, followed by a back-to-back in Miami and Atlanta on Sunday and Monday, respectively. Dallas is also scheduled to face the New York Knicks back home at American Airlines Center on Wednesday.
