Luka Doncic returned to the court Monday after a one-game absence with an ankle injury. He seems fine.
The Mavericks star torched the Detroit Pistons for 53 points in a 111-105 Dallas win. If this sounds commonplace at this point, it's because it kind of is.
The effort was Doncic's fourth 50-plus-point performance of the season and the fifth of his career. He owns more than half of the nine 50-point games in Mavericks history with a tally that isn't likely to slow down anytime soon.
