Another fierce matchup in EuroBasket 2025 came with another injury concern for Luka Doncic. Luckily for the Los Angeles Lakers, Doncic was as quick to dismiss the questions about his ailment as he was the challenge that a knockout game against Italy brought for Slovenia.
The Slovenian superstar put on another breathtaking performance in his country's 84-77 victory over Italy in the Round of 16. Doncic scored 42 points, grabbed 10 rebounds, and picked off three steals to lead Slovenia to the next round of the competition.
The moment which came with concern for everyone was a first quarter scare that involved Doncic's leg.
