Mavericks star Luka Doncic exits win vs. Suns with ankle sprain

Dallas superstar Luka Doncic exited in the first quarter of the Mavericks' 99-95 win over the Phoenix Suns on Thursday because of a sprained left ankle.

An X-ray was negative, and Mavs coach Jason Kidd said Doncic was in "good spirits" after the game.

"He looked good, he looked fine," Kidd said. "But we'll see how he feels as we go forward."

The Mavericks next play Saturday at Utah.

Doncic suffered the injury when he stepped on a Suns defender's foot while pivoting a few minutes into the game.
