Letās hope they take this extremely cautious. Give him and extra couple games at least even after itās ācomfortableā enough to play.
Whew thank goodness. Let him miss the two Grizzly games if not more as needed.
We dodged a huge bullet
Give him 10 days off.
Jeez that was so scaryā¦ we should be cautious with him
“Expected to return as soon as discomfort allows him”
This just sounds like what happened prior to the game too. Medical team cleared him, he wanted to play, but then it bothered him too much in actual game. In the end it’s up to him how he feels and how much he can play through the discomfort.
Praise be
I’m so ready for the Hardy Party + Kyrie. (Who am I fooling lmao we all know the starting line up is gonna be Kyrie, Franklin, Holiday, Theo, and Dwight. Gotta love the basketball mind of Jason.
Glad to hear it, he should take some decent rest
Keep him out 2 weeks. He looks like crap (by Luka standards) anyway
āSeems seriousā

So if it’s really a strain, Luka needs to sit for a couple of weeks. Considering how long it’s obviously been bothering him he could be fully healed now if they had sat him for a couple of weeks around the all-star break.
good news. but I really hope they don’t rush him back. let him heal. there’s no point in playoff seedings or whatever if Luka isn’t 100% for the playoffs.
Meanwhile Kidd will probably still try to get him to start. Give Luka a break, this is why we have Kyrie.
Did Luka scream at the MRI tech? “HEY!!”. š¤Ŗ
This may not be anything related but I hope this injury along with the others he’s had this year will convince to Luka to work on his body and get the weight down, and keep healthy.
Needs him to rest for at least the next 3 games
I thought he came back early from his heel contusion and in the worst way since mavs were on a 4 game streak and on the front end of a b2b. Now he decides to play on the end of b2b with a bum thigh, just horrible decision making from the mavs
Getting weird vibes from all of this too, he needs to rest until hes 100% this time
Alhamdulilah
built like a tank. Fat Luka is no joke !
I have no clue, but if I had to guess I would say that is some form of tendinitis, hard to identify not particularly dangerous but painful and annoying.
How Doctors assessed Luka
