The Los Angeles Lakers will play host to Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round NBA Playoff series at the Crypto.com Arena on Saturday, April 19. All eyes would be on superstar Luka Doncic, whether he starts against the Lakers or not.
Will Luka Doncic play against Minnesota Timberwolves?
Luka Doncic returns to the starting five for Game 1 of the playoffs against the Timberwolves. He didn't feature in the final game of the season against the Portland Trail Blazers due to a sore quadricep. However, his name is not on the team's injury report as he will start the game on Saturday.
Doncic will be joined by the likes of LeBron James on the injury list for the final game of the season as he was suffering from a left groin strain. While Doncic has been given the green light to start, James is still on the team's injury report as he is listed as a probable. Maxi Kleber is also on the injury report as he will miss the game against Timberwolves.
Luka Doncic's presence is a big boost for the Lakers as he has been one of the key players for them, ever since his blockbuster trade from Dallas Mavericks. In the last two appearances for Doncic, he registered 39 and 45 points respectively and will look to continue his great form ahead of the game against Timberwolves.
In his 22 games as a Lakers player, he has averaged 28.2 points, 8.1 rebounds, 7.5 assists and 1.6 steals over 35.1 minutes per game.
