Luka Doncic’s MRI on his injured thigh came back clean on Thursday, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. Wojnarowski reports that Doncic will return “as soon as discomfort allows him.”
Doncic picked up the injury sometime after the All-Star break, perhaps during the loss to the Suns on Sunday. Doncic was never listed on the injury report in the last few games against the Jazz and Pelicans, but Doncic left the game in the third quarter due to said thigh injury.
After the game, Doncic’s assessment felt rather bleak. He told reporters after the game that he was feeling “not good” and that the injury was limiting how well he could push off, run, and jump on the injured leg.
