During Saturday's game against Latvia, Dončić went down when a teammate careened into his legs. Dončić signaled to be substituted out of the game and limped to the locker room. After the game, it was confirmed that the injury was minor, labeled as a knee contusion.

Two days after Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic left a game for his native Slovenia following a right knee injury, he was cleared to resume playing as his national team prepares for the upcoming EuroBasket competition.

Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Dončić "avoided any serious injury" when he exited Slovenia's exhibition against Latvia on Saturday, according to The Athletic's Dan Woike.
