DALLAS -- All-Star guard Luka Doncic attempted to ease concerns about his long-term commitment to the franchise after the Dallas Mavericks' disappointing season ended Sunday.
"I'm happy here, so there's nothing to worry [about]," Doncic said after sitting out the Mavericks' 138-117 loss to the San Antonio Spurs.
The Mavs finished 38-44 and 11th in the Western Conference -- the franchise's first losing season since Doncic's rookie year in 2017-18 -- to miss the postseason despite making a blockbuster midseason trade to acquire All-Star guard Kyrie Irving.
Doncic recently acknowledged that the was more frustrated than he had ever been during his five-year career, pointing to the Mavs' struggles and issues in his private life.
