Luka Doncic (ankle) continues improving: Could play after Christmas

Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic was taking the leap into superstar status early this season. Through 24 games, he was averaging 30.4 points, 9.9 rebounds, and 9.3 assists per game including eight triple-doubles. The 20-year-old looked unstoppable.

Then just one minute and 40 seconds into the Mavericks game against the Miami Heat something did. Luka rolled his ankle after stepping on the foot of Kendrick Nunn. He immediately went down in pain and never returned.

Doncic has been out with an ankle sprain ever since. Here is a look at the latest update on his injury.
