Doncic suffered the injury in the Mavs’ 122-113 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Thursday – a game in which he finished with 41 points, ten rebounds, and nine assists.

The 23-year-old has been on an absolute tear of late, scoring 30 or more points in his past 14 games, including three triple-doubles.

Doncic’s performances have helped the Mavericks win eight of their past ten contests, vaulting them to fifth in the Western Conference (38-25).

Should the Slovenian native be forced to miss Saturday’s matchup, Jalen Brunson and Spencer Dinwiddie will likely take on greater offensive responsibility. Dinwiddie has appeared comfortable in a Mavs’ uniform, posting averages of 18.8 points, 5.8 assists, and two rebounds in his past four games. Meanwhile, Brunson is averaging career-highs across the board, notching 20 or more points in three of his past seven outings.
