Luka Doncic is suffering from wrist problems and will be out for at least a week for Mavericks

Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic has suffered a right wrist strain and will miss at least a week, the team announced Thursday.

The Mavericks said Doncic will be re-evaluated in a week, which will cause him to miss games against the Denver Nuggets, Miami Heat, Atlanta Hawks and New York Knicks.

Doncic had tried to downplay the injury after Tuesday’s win over the New Orleans Pelicans. He noted that he started to feel the problem in the first quarter, but added that he didn’t think it was anything serious.

He returned to the lineup against the Pelicans after missing his first game of the season on Sunday due to a right knee contusion.

Doncic is averaging 28.2 points, 7.8 rebounds and 7.8 assists per game this season.
