What happened to Luka Doncic?
The Slovenian superstar exited Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors prematurely, during the middle of the fourth quarter, indicating to his head coach Jason Kidd an issue with his hamstring.
Subsequently, Doncic was sidelined for the remainder of the game due to hamstring soreness.
During his 30 minutes of play, Doncic accumulated 21 points, three rebounds and nine assists. He achieved this on 7-of-18 shooting from the field while also making 1-of-6 attempts from beyond the arc.
"Luka Magic" missed the subsequent game against the OKC Thunder but is available against the San Antonio Spurs.
San Antonio Spurs injury report for March 19
The Spurs have listed center Charles Bassey as out. All players are listed as available.
What happened to Charles Bassey?
Charles Bassey's season has come to an abrupt halt as he sustained a torn ACL in his left knee. The center incurred this injury while competing with the Austin Spurs.
Bassey had been predominantly occupying the backup center position for the Spurs until Victor Wembanyama's promotion to the starting center role, which consequently saw Zach Collins transition to a bench role.
With his playing time diminishing on the NBA roster, Bassey was temporarily reassigned to Austin to gain additional playing opportunities.
