Mavs' Doncic out at least week with wrist strain
Written by I Dig SportsDallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic has sustained a right wrist strain and will miss at least one week, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania on Thursday.
Doncic received evaluations on the wrist Wednesday and will begin rehabilitating the injury, sources said.
He will be reevaluated after missing the next week of games against the Denver Nuggets, Miami Heat, Atlanta Hawks and New York Knicks, sources said.
Doncic had tried to downplay the injury after Tuesday's win over the New Orleans Pelicans, noting that he started feeling the issue in the first quarter but adding that he thought it was "nothing serious."
He was returning to the lineup against the Pelicans after missing his first game of the season Sunday due to a right knee bruise.
Doncic is averaging 28.2 points, 7.8 rebounds and 7.8 assists per game this season.
