"He'll be out tonight and day-to-day moving forward," the Lakers coach told reporters.
Doncic notably took an untimely exit in the Lakers' 119-115 Thursday win over the Philadelphia 76ers. He sustained a left hamstring injury in the second quarter and didn't eventually return to the game.
The Lakeshow fanbase was alarmed about the severity of Doncic's hamstring issues. But now, everyone can finally take a sigh of relief.
The Slovenian superstar is leading the NBA in scoring (32.8) and is also averaging 8.6 assists and 7.8 rebounds.
With Luka temporarily out, the Lakers will lean on the leadership of LeBron James and Austin Reaves.
