Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (left hamstring soreness) is out for Thursday’s game against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
What this means:
Doncic will sit out the Mavericks’ back-to-back rematch after leaving Wednesday’s game against the Golden State Warriors early. Dante Exum, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Jaden Hardy should see more playing time Thursday night. Kyrie Irving will have more ball-handling opportunities with Doncic inactive.
Kyrie is averaging 50.3 FanDuel points per game without Luka this season, compared to 41.1 when both players are active.
