DALLAS – In what seems like a blink-of-an-eye ago, Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd on Tuesday announced that Luka Doncic, out with an ankle injury, has a chance of returning to action on Thursday when the defending NBA champion Milwaukee Bucks visit American Airlines Center.
The eye just blinked again.
Doncic, who missed his fifth consecutive game Tuesday while dealing with soreness in his left ankle, is now as of Wednesday in the noon hour entering the NBA’s COVID protocol, as first noted by ESPN.
The injury has been an issue for the perennial MVP candidate Doncic, 22, since mid-November, and along with a knee problem, his problems have meant him having missed nine of the last 17 games.
