When will Luka Doncic return from the calf damage?

Absolutely no one was prepared for the news of the Blockbuster trade with Los Angeles Lakers, which acquires superstar guard Luka Doncic from Dallas Mavericks in exchange for Anthony Davis. It was really a deal that broke the Internet when no one saw this coming, but Lakers now has a building block for the Post-Lebron James era.

In the short term, however, Doncic still employs a calf injury and has not played since Christmas. It is a very delicate injury and one where a return cannot be rushed, but fortunately for Lakers it seems that it will not be too long before he is back on the field.

Late Saturday night, Espns Brian Windhorst showed up at the sports center and reported that Doncic has already ramped up to return before the All-Star break and get closer to fit up:

“He certainly goes up and gets closer. I don’t know if they have a date in mind, but there was a feeling that he could be back before the All-Star break, which is in two weeks. It is obviously a disturbing injury, this is the second time he injured his calf this year and you have to be careful about it. But this is not like a long -term thing. “

As Windhorst noticed, this is the second time Doncic has injured that calf this season, so he and Lakers need to be careful about it. He should not be back until he is completely healthy and Lakers will take any precaution before he gets him on the field.

But the expectation of seeing Doncic in the purple and gold next to LeBron will only continue to grow from here. Lakers has once again drawn a deal that no one thought was once an option, and Doncic will only be on the field when he is healthy and ready to do so.

Mavericks turned to Lakers about Luka Doncic-Anthony Davis Handel

Once the news had broken this incredible Luka Doncic trade for Anthony Davis, there were plenty of questions that many still had. In particular, how these discussions even began between lakers and mavericks and how things progressed from there.

It turns out that it was Mavericks who reportedly initiated the conversations and offered Doncic to Lakers. While it was undoubtedly a difficult decision to stand out with Davis, Laker’s Luka felt the chance to be the face of the franchise in the next decade and ultimately could not allow for the opportunity.
