Luka Doncic departed the Mavericks’ victory against the Warriors prematurely due to a hamstring tweak, marking an end to his seven-game streak of triple-doubles. Despite Dallas securing a win against the Curry-less Warriors, the focus shifted to Doncic’s injury.

During the fourth quarter, Doncic attempted an alley-oop pass to Daniel Gafford, but as he planted his leg, he appeared to strain his hamstring. Observers noted Doncic’s grimace and immediate request to leave the game, heading straight to the locker room.

Doncic didn’t re-enter the game, yet the Mavericks managed to maintain their lead, finishing with a 109-99 victory.

Concerns linger about Doncic’s condition moving forward, especially with Dallas scheduled to play against Oklahoma City on Thursday. Coach Jason Kidd mentioned that the situation is uncertain, and updates are expected on Thursday.

Given the unpredictability of hamstring injuries, Doncic’s presence in Thursday’s game against the Thunder seems doubtful. The Mavericks are unlikely to take risks with his health, especially considering the stage of the season.

Kyrie Irving led the Mavericks with 23 points and 10 assists, while Doncic contributed 21 points and nine assists. Jonathan Kuminga stood out for the Warriors with 27 points, as they continued to struggle offensively in the absence of Stephen Curry, who is recovering from a sprained ankle and may return for Saturday’s game against the Lakers.
