Luka Doncic limped off the floor with an ankle injury in the first quarter of Saturday night’s Dallas Mavericks game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

The injury looked pretty nasty.

After limping to the sideline, Doncic then hobbled off the court and into the locker room for further evaluation, per Tim MacMahon of ESPN.

It’s clear that Doncic is heavily favoring his right ankle there.

It would be a shame if Doncic missed any significant time with this ankle injury. He’s been utterly unstoppable in his second year, doing things that only the great Michael Jordan has done while racking up triple-doubles by the handful.
