Luka Doncic was not with the Mavericks in Oklahoma City Thursday night after hurt your hamstring and have to leave the game against the Warriors the day before.
However, it appears he won’t be out for long, with Jason Kidd saying pregame on Thursday that Doncic’s MRI came back with no problems.
Kidd says the MRI of Doncic’s hamstring came back clean. He will be re-evaluated this weekend. Good news for Mavs and Doncic.

The Mavericks host the Nuggets on Sunday then travel to San Antonio for their next game on Tuesday. Hamstring injuries can be tricky and persistent, which is why Dallas is right to be cautious with their star — they need him for the playoffs in a month more than anything. Dallas will wait to see how Doncic feels before deciding whether he plays Sunday.
Doncic is playing at an MVP level this season, averaging 34.3 points, 9.8 assists and 9 rebounds per game. He is coming off a streak of seven consecutive triple-doubles.
