Mavericks Injury Report: Luka Doncic Unbothered By Minor Shoulder Issue

Luka Doncic appeared to be suffering from a minor shoulder ailment late in the second quarter of Wednesday's Game 1 against the Warriors.

Doncic began grabbing at and stretching out his right shoulder after drawing a foul on Andrew Wiggins and feigning a layup attempt with 4:51 left in the second quarter. 

He has not been subbed out and the Mavericks maintained coming out of halftime that it will be a non-issue. 

The 23-year-old will commonly suffer bumps and bruises and play through without limitations, as he is now with the shoulder and a visible scrape across his cheek. 

Mid-way through the third quarter Doncic has 20 points, six rebounds, and three assists on 6-14 shooting.
