Luka Doncic didn’t play for the Dallas Mavericks against the Houston Rockets, and his team was unable to win without him.
The Dallas Mavericks lost to the Houston Rockets last night and they were playing without Luka Doncic. The Rockets are considered to be one of the worst teams in the NBA this season and yet the Mavs weren’t able to defeat them.
This further highlighted the impact of Doncic on this Mavs team as they aren’t a good team without him. Tim Hardaway Jr. and Spencer Dinwiddie weren’t able to close out the Rockets and that is a concern for Jason Kidd and his coaching team.
The Dallas Mavericks are currently 8-6 and the 7th seed in the Western Conference. They are ranked as the 14th-best team on the offensive end while Doncic has dominated everyone this season. Hopefully, the Mavs will be able to rediscover their form.
Luka Doncic has averaged 34.4 points, 8.8 rebounds, and 7.8 assists in 13 games this season. He is among the frontrunners to win the MVP award this season and the loss to the Rockets further highlights his importance to this Mavs team.
