Luka Doncic knows pressure. He always has. And he’s treating it like he always does — like it’s no big deal. He’s more concerned about building chemistry with Klay Thompson.

Eddie Sefko: Jason Kidd on Luka Doncic’s calf injury: “He got hit in the calf, reported it tight, so they got an MRI and saw that it was a strain. There’s no concern at this point about his availability. We’ll see how he feels in a week.” Don’t expect to see him in the first preseason game. -via Twitter @ESefko / October 2, 2024
Marc Stein: The hit that caused the calf injury, league sources tell @TheSteinLine , occurred in a weekend workout in Dallas before the Mavericks arrived in Las Vegas for training camp. The Mavericks say Dončić will miss at least one week. -via x.com / October 2, 2024
