Luka Doncic injury update: Dallas Mavericks could have star player back sooner than expected

So far this season, Doncic has played in 22 of the Mavericks‘ 40 games. Prior to the injury, he was averaging 28.1 points, 8.3 rebounds and 7.8 assists per game, making his absence all the more noticeable. As the Mavericks continue to battle through this stretch, Doncic‘s return could be a game-changer for the team.

According to Greenberg, the team is optimistic that Doncic could make his return to the court before the All-Star break, which takes place from February 14 to 16. Despite this optimism, the Mavericks have clarified that Doncic will not be re-evaluated until late January, leaving fans eagerly awaiting more updates on his recovery.

While Doncic has been recovering, the Mavericks have seen significant contributions from Kyrie Irving, who was traded to Dallas on February 6, 2023, in exchange for Dorian Finney-Smith, Spencer Dinwiddie, and several draft picks.

Despite his strong performance, Doncic had to exit the game due to the injury, and the Mavericks ultimately fell short, losing 99-105.
