Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (knee) has been officially upgraded from probable to available for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Clippers. The Slovenian superstar said Wednesday morning that his right knee is "not good," and he has also been dealing with an illness lately, but Doncic is ready to play through pain.

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic(knee) is listed as probable going into Wednesday's Game 5 matchup with the Clippers. Doncic has a sprained right knee after tweaking it in Game 4 on Sunday. However, the 25-year-old will likely suit up in a crucial Game 5 in LA. He has averaged 29.0 points, 9.8 rebounds and 8.5 assists while shooting only 38.6 percent from the field across the series' first four games. |

Sun Apr 28 | 19:42 | Luka Doncic Struggles Shooting In Game 4 |
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic had a triple-double in Sunday's loss to the Clippers. He struggled shooting the ball, going 10-for-24 from the field and 1-for-9 from deep. However, he still finished with 29 points, adding 10 rebounds, 10 assists, and one block. The Clippers didn't have Kawhi Leonard (knee) for this one, with his absence potentially extending through the rest of the series. Unfortunately, Dallas couldn't take advantage, so the series will head back to Los Angeles knotted at two games a piece. As always, DFS managers should expect Doncic to remain a top performer. |

Sat Apr 27 | 18:39 | Luka Doncic On The Injury Report For Game 4 |
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (knee) is questionable for Sunday's playoff battle with the Clippers. He's back on the injury report because of knee soreness. However, Doncic has been known to sustain minor ailments over the years, so it's hard to imagine he'll miss Game 4. The 25-year-old has struggled shooting the ball recently. However, he has still averaged 29.0 points, 9.7 boards, 8.0 assists, and 1.3 steals in this series. DFS managers should expect Doncic to see north of 40 minutes in Game 4, assuming the contest stays close, with the 25-year-old having the potential to finish as the highest-producing fantasy option on Sunday's slate. |

Fri Apr 12 | 22:34 | Luka Doncic Unavailable Sunday Versus Thunder |
Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (ankle) will miss Sunday's regular-season finale against the Thunder. The Mavericks have decided to rest the 25-year-old for a week before the playoffs start. He's averaged an amazing 33.9 points, 9.2 rebounds, 9.8 assists, and 1.4 steals in 70 regular-season contests. Kyrie Irving (hamstring) will also be sitting out, which means Dante Exum, Tim Hardaway Jr., and Jaden Hardy will see plenty of minutes on the court. |

Fri Apr 12 | 18:44 | Luka Doncic Expected To Miss Friday's Game |
According to NBA insider Marc Stein, Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (ankle) isn't expected to play on Friday against Detroit. With Kyrie Irving (hamstring) already ruled out, Dante Exum, Tim Hardaway Jr., and Jaden Hardy will be let loose on the Mavericks backcourt against the worst team in the National Basketball Association. It's a very favorable matchup for the trio, as only four teams allow more points per game than the Pistons. |

Thu Apr 11 | 19:41 | Luka Doncic Questionable Against Detroit |
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) is questionable heading into Friday's matchup with the Pistons. The 25-year-old has been on and off the injury report all season. However, he's only missed 10 games, his fewest since his rookie campaign. With that said, the Mavs are set for the playoffs, so the team may give Doncic a night off versus the disastrous Pistons. With Kyrie Irving (hamstring) also ruled out, Dante Exum, Tim Hardaway Jr., and P.J. Washington could lead the way on the scoring end. |

Wed Apr 10 | 09:40 | Luka Doncic Goes Close To 40-Point Triple-Double |
Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic came very close to a 40-point triple-double on Tuesday against Charlotte, racking up 39 points, 12 rebounds, and 10 assists in a 130-104 win. These were game-high marks in all three categories. Doncic hit 8-for-17 from deep and finished with 13-for-25 overall shooting, contributing one block on the defensive end. The MVP candidate is finishing the campaign strongly, averaging 32.8 points, 11.3 rebounds, and 10.3 assists for April. However, it's possible we won't see him in action in the next game, as Dallas completes a back-to-back on Wednesday against Miami. Doncic missed the second leg of a back-to-back last week with a sore right knee, and the team might want to give him rest again with the playoffs around the corner. |

Sat Apr 6 | 22:07 | Luka Doncic Questionable Versus Houston |
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (knee) is questionable heading into Sunday's meeting with the Rockets. The MVP candidate didn't suit up on Friday night against Golden State because of a sore knee. However, Dallas is still fighting to remain out of the Play-In, so Doncic will likely do all he can to get out there. But if he's out again, Kyrie Irving and P.J. Washington, combining for 58 points versus the Warriors, are locks for all DFS contests. There is also a place in fantasy lineups for Tim Hardaway Jr. and Dante Exum. |

Fri Apr 5 | 19:02 | Luka Doncic Won't Play Against Golden State |
Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's tilt against the Warriors. He was already unlikely to play after picking up a doubtful tag due to a sore right knee. There's hope Dallas' MVP candidate can return on Sunday versus Houston. Kyrie Irving should be a usage monster without Doncic, with Tim Hardaway Jr. also in a spot to get extra shots. Meanwhile, Dante Exum is the likeliest candidate to move into the starting five, which will boost his fantasy value. |

Fri Apr 5 | 17:13 | Luka Doncic Downgraded To Doubtful Against Golden State Friday |
Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (knee) is now doubtful for Friday's contest against the Golden State Warriors. Doncic is still dealing with right knee soreness but has played in nine straight games. If the 25-year-old cannot suit up, Tim Hardaway, Jaden Hardy, and Dante Exum will likely see an uptick in minutes. Fantasy managers should explore other options at guard just in case the Mavericks star point guard is unavailable. |

Sun Mar 31 | 18:42 | Luka Doncic Ready To Face The Rockets |
Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (knee) will play against Houston on Sunday. He carried a questionable tag due to a sore knee heading into Sunday but will be in the lineup for his seventh consecutive appearance. Doncic has averaged a 31-point triple-double for the month and went off for a 41-point night in his only previous meeting with the Rockets this season. It's hard to slow him down, and even Houston's top-10-ranked defense will likely struggle to do so on Sunday. |

Sun Mar 31 | 02:01 | Luka Doncic Questionable Versus Houston |
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Rockets. There haven't been many times where Doncic isn't listed on the injury report. But he's now uncertain to suit up because of knee soreness. The Rockets need a win to get closer to the Play-In picture. On the other hand, Dallas needs a victory to keep to help keep Phoenix out of the No. 6 spot in the Western Conference. With that in mind, Doncic will probably play. But if he doesn't, Kyrie Irving would be a lock for DFS contests. In addition, Tim Hardaway Jr., Dante Exum, and P.J. Washington would be the likeliest on the roster to get more chances offensively. |

Thu Mar 28 | 21:15 | Luka Doncic On The Injury Report For Friday |
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (Achilles) is questionable for Friday's rematch with the Sacramento Kings. It's common to see Doncic on the injury report. However, his latest ailment, Achilles soreness, has bothered him for weeks. He logged 32 minutes when these clubs met on Tuesday, finishing with 28 points, 11 rebounds, six assists, and two steals. The Mavs would love another win over the Kings to widen the gap in the Western Conference standings, meaning Doncic should be in the lineup. But if he doesn't suit up, Kyrie Irving would be a lock for all DFS contests. There would also be room for Dante Exum, P.J. Washington, and Tim Hardaway Jr. to get more involved on the scoring end. |

Tue Mar 26 | 21:27 | Luka Doncic Available On Tuesday Night |
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (Achilles) will play on Tuesday against the Sacramento Kings. The 25-year-old logged 41 minutes in Monday's win over the Utah Jazz. However, he popped up on the injury report on Tuesday because of Achilles soreness. But Dallas is fighting to secure at least a sixth seed in the Western Conference, so it would have taken a lot to keep Doncic off the floor for this one. As usual, he is in the MVP conversation and remains a lock for all fantasy lineups. Yet, Doncic has averaged 26.5 points in two meetings with Sacramento this season, meaning he may not be as productive as usual. |

Tue Mar 19 | 19:08 | Luka Doncic Good To Go Versus San Antonio |
Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (hamstring) has been officially labeled as available for Tuesday's matchup against San Antonio. He has been upgraded from a probable status. Dallas' superstar has been dealing with left hamstring soreness lately, but that didn't keep him from logging 40 minutes and shining with 37 points on Sunday against Denver. Docic should cook up something special again for fantasy managers in Tuesday's favorable matchup. He has averaged 33.0 points, 11.3 rebounds, and 9.3 assists with 1.7 steals in three meetings against the Spurs this season. |

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (hamstring) is listed as probable ahead of Tuesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The star guard was able to play through his hamstring issue during Sunday's game. That being said, Doncic should be able to suit up on Tuesday, but the team will likely wait until closer to game time before making a final decision. Fantasy managers should check back on Tuesday for a final decision. |

Sun Mar 17 | 13:44 | Luka Doncic Expected To Play Versus Denver |

He exited Wednesday's win over the Golden State Warriors with a hamstring injury and wasn't available for the highly-anticipated showdown with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder on Thursday. However, Doncic is good to go after entering this contest with a questionable tag. Of course, he's a must-start for all fantasy lineups. |
