Mavericks play without Dončić for first time this season

OKLAHOMA CITY – For the first time this season, the Mavericks played without Luka Donu010diu0107 on Sunday.

The superstar point guard sat out against the Oklahoma City Thunder, but not simply for health maintenance purposes on the second night of back-to-back games.

“It pertains to his right knee contusion so we’ll see how he feels today, how he feels tomorrow and hopefully he can go on Tuesday,” coach Jason Kidd said.

Donu010diu0107 through the first 13 games averaged 28.2 points, 7.8 rebounds and 7.8 assists. He was shooting just 32.1 percent from three-point range.
