We know Luka Doncic has a high pain threshold.
How else would he put up with some of the annoying, repetitive questions he gets from media members?
But physical pain is different than mental anguish.
It hurt to watch Doncic against San Antonio on Wednesday night. And his nasty thumb sprain has left him questionable for Friday’s tantalizing game against Miami. If Doncic plays – and it’s hard to see him missing a Slovenian-themed night against fellow countryman Goran Dragic – it will be a meeting of two very solid teams who are angling for playoff positioning.
