Mavericks' Luka Doncic (back) ruled out on Wednesday
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (back) will not play in Wednesday's contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
What It Means:
According to head coach Rick Carlisle, Doncic will not be available after his "lower back has been bothering him for two and a half weeks". Expect Jalen Brunson to play more minutes at the guard positions in a middling matchup against a Thunder unit ranked 18th in defensive efficiency.
Our models currently project Brunson to score 30.0 FanDuel points at the salary of $5,200.
