Dallas Mavericks’ Luka Doncic In NBA Protocols Before Christmas Game
Dallas Mavericks All-NBA Defender Luka Doncic joined the federation’s health and safety protocols, threatening to lose another league star for its Christmas Day games.
Doncic and the Guardian Trey Burke joined the protocols on Wednesday, joined teammates Tim Hardaway Jr., Maxi Kleber and Josh Green beside.
The Mavericks play Milwaukee on Thursday and Utah on Saturday night in Salt Lake City in the ESPN/ABC Christmas Day five-game final.
Players must return consecutive negative tests within a 24-hour period or must take a 10-day break before they can resume play.
Doncic has missed five games in a row with what the team say is an ankle injury, but there are plans for him to return on Thursday against the Bucks.
