Will Luka Doncic of the Mavericks be participating in tonight’s game against the Celtics? Here’s the latest update on his injury status.
The Dallas Mavericks have had mixed results on their current road trip, winning one out of their last three games, with their latest victory being against the Toronto Raptors by a final score of 136-125. Their road trip concludes with a matchup against the Boston Celtics on Friday, which promises to be a challenging game given the Celtics’ status as the team with the best record in the NBA.
Adding to the intrigue is the uncertain status of Mavericks’ star player Luka Doncic, who is contending with a left ankle sprain and a broken nose. Whether Doncic will be available for tonight’s game against the Celtics remains up in the air.
As per the NBA Injury Report, Doncic is currently listed as questionable due to his ankle and nose injuries. The outcome of the game is expected to be closely contested, with the Celtics being favored, but the Mavericks not backing down, especially if Doncic is able to play.
Moreover, the matchup between the Celtics and Mavericks provides an opportunity for both Doncic and Celtics’ player Jayson Tatum to bolster their respective cases for MVP consideration. A victory over another MVP candidate on a contending team could potentially sway voters at the end of the season.
