It is not known yet if Doncic will play in any of the Mavs’ summer league games
There a few chances that Luka Doncic may debut for the Mavs in the Summer League.
Per Mavs.com, After Thursday’s practice session, Dallas Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle promptly gave an impromptu update on why rookie guard Luka Doncic hasn’t been able to be involved in any of the team’s live summer league practices.
“He has not participated in a live practice yet because he needs to have his buyout completed with Real Madrid, he needs a FIBA letter of clearance, he needs a physical and he needs to sign his contract,” Carlisle said. “We’re getting close to getting those things done, but we’re not there yet and he has not had a live practice yet. But he will be in Vegas. “
In fact, it is not known yet if Doncic will play in any of the Mavs’ summer league games. That prospect is still up in the air.
“He is going to continue to ramp up his work load and there remains a possibility that he could play,” Carlisle said. “But to what percentage I could guarantee that, I just can’t. I’m just not going to go there.
“And remember, this guy just got done playing 10 days ago, or whatever it is. This is the set of facts that we’re looking at.”
