Luka back vs. Jokic, Nuggets after missing game

NBA

DALLAS — Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic will play Sunday against the Denver Nuggets after missing a game because of left hamstring soreness, coach Jason Kidd said.

Doncic exited with 6:48 remaining in Wednesday’s win over the Golden State Warriors after feeling tightness in the hamstring, ending his streak of seven consecutive triple-doubles.

He did not make the trip to Oklahoma City for Thursday night’s loss to the Thunder.

MRI results on Doncic’s hamstring were “clean,” Kidd said Thursday night.

Doncic leads the NBA in scoring with 34.3 points per game and ranks third in assists (9.8) and 17th in rebounds (9.0).
