NBA Daily Injury Report (January 28): ‘Thank you’ Luca Doncic with minor ankle injury
It’s fortunate out of misfortune. Dallas Mavericks’ Luka Doncic (23, 201 cm) avoided serious injury.
On the 28th (Korean time), American media ‘ESPN’ Adrian Wojnarowski, a reporter, posted on his SNS, “Doncic suffered a light sprain on his left ankle. The X-ray test result was negative, and he was listed on the day to day list.”
Doncic was injured in the 2022-2023 NBA regular season confrontation with the Phoenix Suns on the 27th. He broke his left ankle in the process of attacking less than three minutes into the game and complained of pain, and subsequently retired to the bench. He developed anxiety by not being able to return to the court until the game was over.
Doncic is a key force in Dallas. Doncic, who rose to the MVP level from last season, is showing overwhelming dominance this season, recording 33.8 points, 9.1 rebounds, 8.6 assists and a field goal rate of 49.8% in 44 games. Doncic’s absence could, of course, be a huge blow for Dallas. This is because it is not easy to fill the vacuum of Donchichi, which is an irreplaceable force.
For a while, it was known that Doncic’s injury was not serious. This gave Dallas a big sigh. Of course, as Doncic’s injury is Day-to-day (determined on the day), there is a possibility that he may miss 1-2 games for rest.
Meanwhile, despite the absence of Doncic’s injury, Dallas escaped a two-game losing streak by winning 99-95 over Phoenix thanks to the explosive performance of Spencer Dinwiddie, who scored 36 points. With a record of 26 wins and 24 losses for the season, they are ranked 6th in the Western Conference. 메이저사이트
Along with Doncic’s news, Donovan Mitchell (26, 185cm), who is suffering from a groin injury, is highly likely to miss the game on the 28th as the injured part does not heal easily. In addition to Doncic and Mitchel mentioned above, ahead of the game on the 28th, we looked at which players were listed on the injured list and summarized the changes.
