Luka Doncic sits out as short-handed Mavericks fall to Bulls

Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic did not play in Saturday's 144-115 loss to the Chicago Bulls, as the team has ruled him out with a right quadriceps strain.

Doncic mentioned feeling quad pain after playing 37 minutes Friday night during a 106-105 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, when he posted 33 points, 11 assists and 6 rebounds.

The Bulls capitalized. DeMar DeRozan had 28 points and nine rebounds and Nikola Vucevic added 20 points and eight rebounds, helping Chicago to win its second-straight victory.
