Mavericks' Luka Doncic to miss game with knee contusion

Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic will sit out Sunday evening's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder due to a right knee contusion.

It's the second game of a back-to-back for the Mavs.

Doncic has been dealing with the knee contusion since Tuesday's loss to the Golden State Warriors.

Doncic, a first-team All-NBA selection the last five seasons, is off to a slow start by his standards after missing the preseason due to a calf contusion. He's averaging 28.2 points, 7.8 rebounds and 7.8 assists while shooting 42.5% from the floor and 32.
