Luka Dončić: Breaking News

Status in doubt for quarterfinals

ESPN's Shams Charania reported Tuesday on NBA Today that the Lakers are not expecting Doncic (hamstring) to return during the first round of the Western Conference playoffs versus Houston. Although it's not necessarily an unexpected update, it sounds like the Lakers will have to advance to the second round in order for Doncic to see the court again in 2025-26. With the superstar guard continuing to nurse a Grade 2 left hamstring strain, LeBron James should remain the focal point of Los Angeles' offense while Luke Kennard takes on an expanded role.

Officially ruled out for Tuesday

Doncic (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 2 of the Western Conference first-round series against the Rockets. Doncic has been sidelined by a Grade 2 left hamstring strain, and, as expected, will remain out as the Lakers look to extend their series lead to 2-0. An update on Doncic and Austin Reaves' (oblique) status and potential return is likely to come in the next few days, though in the meantime Los Angeles will look to continue getting strong production from Luke Kennard, who delivered a 27-point performance in Game 1.

Out at least one more week

Doncic (hamstring) will miss at least one more week, per Khobi Price of The California Post. Doncic is still considered out indefinitely due to a Grade 2 left hamstring strain, and his status for the first round of the playoffs versus Houston remains in serious doubt. With Austin Reaves (oblique) also out indefinitely, the Lakers will have to lean more heavily on LeBron James, and Luke Kennard should continue to play a more prominent role in the backcourt as well.
