Luka Doncic (thigh) doubtful Monday for Dallas
Dallas Mavericks small forward Luka Doncic (right thigh contusion) is doubtful to play Monday versus the Philadelphia 76ers.
Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle said the team will be cautious with Doncic's return, so it's not a surprise to see him headed for a second straight absence. Courtney Lee (9 points, 1 steal, 2 3-pointers) started in place of the rookie on Sunday, but Trey Burke (25 points, 8 dimes, 4 treys) benefitted the most off the bench.
Doncic is averaging 21.1 points, 7.6 rebounds, 5.9 assists, 1.1 steals, 2.3 triples, and 39.9 FanDuel points per game.
