Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic has been contending with various injuries throughout the postseason, including issues with his knee, ankle, and now a thoracic contusion. Despite frequently appearing on the NBA injury report as probable or questionable, Doncic has managed to play in every game so far.
Regarding his current condition, Doncic expressed a resilient attitude, stating, “At this point in the season, a lot of things going on. If I’m playing, I’m fine. So no worries.”
This reflects Doncic’s determination to continue contributing to his team’s efforts despite the physical challenges he has faced during the postseason.
On Sunday, Mazzulla didn’t provide a definitive update for Celtics fans eager to learn whether the Latvian star would play on Monday evening. “He’s trying. He’s doing everything he can to put himself in position to be out there,” Mazzulla stated, as reported by Daniel Donabedian of ClutchPoints on X, the social media platform previously known as Twitter.
It’s important to mention that for the Celtics’ Game 3 victory, Porzingis was declared out before the game started. However, in Game 4, he was listed as available and did dress for the game, but ultimately did not play any minutes during the team’s significant loss.
