Dallas Mavericks' standout, Luka Doncic, confronts uncertainty for the upcoming Thunder game following a left hamstring injury on the heels of facing the Warriors.

In the Dallas Mavericks' 109-99 triumph against the Golden State Warriors, Luka Doncic's stellar performance was abbreviated due to left hamstring soreness.

Doncic amassed 21 points, nine assists, and three rebounds in a 30-minute display against the Warriors, halting his streak of seven consecutive triple-doubles. He departed for the locker room during the fourth quarter, with the team subsequently declaring him out for the remainder of the game.

The Mavericks face a back-to-back matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday night. Jason Kidd elaborated on the team's uncertainty regarding Doncic's availability, considering the recent occurrence of his injury.


"[Doncic] gave me the signal that his [hamstring[ was tight, so we took him out," said Jason Kidd after the game.

During his media address, Kidd expressed uncertainty about Doncic's potential travel to Oklahoma City due to his injury. Kidd characterized the situation as "fluid," indicating ongoing discussions within the team while he was at the podium.

"I'll have a better answer tomorrow. We'll see. This is a fluid thing, This is being talked about now. We'll find out in a couple of minutes if he's going or not."

In 58 games this season, Doncic has maintained averages of 34.3 points, 9.8 assists, and 9.0 rebounds. Following a remarkable performance, he clinched the Western Conference Player of the Week title and currently holds the title of Western Conference Player of the Month.
