Injured star Luka Doncic will join the Dallas Mavericks on their upcoming road trip and could play as soon as Saturday in Salt Lake City against the Utah Jazz.
After missing the past five games due to an injured wrist, Doncic returned to practice with his teammates on Friday and "looked good," according to coach Jason Kidd. It's uncertain whether he'll play against Utah or Sunday in Portland during the Mavericks' weekend road trip, but he will be with the team.
Unlike last season, when the Mavericks only won four of 12 games in Doncic's absence, Dallas has fared well without their top gun since he was injured on Nov.
