Luka Doncic sprained his left ankle in the third quarter and the Dallas Mavericks went on to lose to the Los Angeles Clippers, 130-122, Friday night at AdventHealth Arena in Orlando in Game 3 of the opening round of the playoffs.
The Clippers lead the series, 2-1, and Game 4 will be played Sunday at 2:30 p.m.
On the play which shook up Mavs Nation, Clippers’ forward Kawhi Leonard was driving to the hoop and his left knee collided with Doncic’s left knee. In the process, Doncic’s left ankle wound up buckling on the play, and he laid on the court for a few minutes before hopping off the floor.
