3 years agoDallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (calf) has been announced to be dealing with a strained left calf, which he sustained during Sunday's regular-season finale. Dallas did not make his status for Game 1 of the Western Conference playoffs vs. Utah immediately available, and they won't need to list his designation until Friday night. Depending on the severity of the ailment, Doncic could be facing a short absence (Grade 1) or an extended one (Grade 3), although the Mavericks did not tip their hand in either direction. If Doncic is unavailable for Saturday's outing, Jalen Brunson, Dorian Finney-Smith, and Spencer Dinwiddie would all see their DFS value rise exponentially. Check back for word on Doncic's status as it becomes available throughout the week.--Jesse Borek
