Mavericks star Luka Dončić leaves Christmas game vs. Timberwolves early with calf injury

Dallas Mavericks star Luka Donu010diu0107 left Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves due to a calf injury.

Donu010diu0107, in the second quarter of the Christmas Day matchup at the American Airlines Center, was making a move at the elbow when he suddenly pulled up and passed the ball away. He then immediately started limping, and he seemed distraught as play went the other way.

Donu010diu0107 eventually walked off the court and into the locker room under his own power, but he was limping significantly as he did so.

Luka Doncic went back to the locker room after an apparent injury on this play.
