DALLAS -- Mavericks superstar guard Luka Doncic will miss Saturday's Game 1 against the Utah Jazz because of his strained left calf, and significant concern remains for his availability for Monday's Game 2, sources told ESPN.
Doncic, who is officially listed as doubtful, has not practiced since suffering the injury in the third quarter of the Mavs' regular-season finale on Sunday. He has been undergoing extensive treatment and progressed to jogging on a treadmill during Thursday's practice.
"He's in good spirits and looks like he's improving," Mavs coach Jason Kidd said.
