The Los Angeles Lakers will be without Luka Doncic on Saturday when they face the Golden State Warriors, as the star guard has been ruled out with a strained left hamstring.
Doncic’s absence removes a primary offensive engine from the Lakers’ lineup for a marquee matchup against a Western Conference rival. The team will need to adjust its rotation and playmaking responsibilities with Doncic sidelined.
Injury update
Doncic is dealing with a strained left hamstring. While he will miss the game against Golden State, there is optimism the issue is not viewed as a major injury.
The Lakers have not announced a return timetable within the scope of this update.
