Is Luka Doncic playing tonight vs Denver Nuggets? Latest injury update from Dallas Mavericks (November 3) 

The Dallas Mavericks will face a tough test when they go toe-to-toe with the Denver Nuggets on Friday, Nov. 3. Dallas has enjoyed a strong start to the new season, boasting a 4-0 record. However, Denver are the reigning NBA champions and will test the Mavericks in multiple ways.

At the time of writing, Luka Doncic is expected to participate against the Nuggets. Doncic has been exceptional to begin the new season. The potential MVP candidate is averaging 33.8 points, 10.5 rebounds, and 9.8 assists per game, shooting 51.1% from the field and 42.2% from 3-point range.

While Doncic is likely to be part of the rotation, the Mavericks could be without Kyrie Irving, who is listed as questionable. Maxi Kleber could also miss the contest due to a small toe dislocation on his right foot.

Despite Irving and Kleber potentially missing from the rotation, the Mavericks won't be an easy win for the Nuggets. Dallas has looked vastly improved on the defensive end. Grant Williams and Derek Lively II have both been impressive for their new team on that end of the floor.

Doncic's stellar start to the season will ensure the Mavericks have a chance to earn a shock victory over their championship-level opponents.
