DALLAS -- Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic exited the team's Christmas Day game against the Minnesota Timberwolves late in the second quarter because of a left calf strain.
Doncic was ruled out for the remainder of the game during halftime.
Doncic, who recently missed two games because of a left heel contusion, grimaced in pain when he planted that foot after picking up his dribble. He immediately looked toward the Mavs' bench and indicated he was injured.
Doncic wasn't able to get back on defense on the ensuing possession and hobbled straight to the locker room to be evaluated after Dallas called a timeout with 2:31 remaining in the half.
