The star player for the Dallas Mavericks and the Slovenian national team, Luka Doncic, played the bronze medal game with a left wrist injury, which they lost to Australia.
Doncic initially injured his wrist in Thursday’s semi-final loss to France. This injury surely had to do with his low field goal percentage in the last two games, in which he had a combined 12 hits of 38 attempts.
If you were concerned, asked Luka about his wrist…
“My wrist is going to be fine. I need a couple of days off. I’ve had every day basketball since the beginning of NBA season. A lot of games, so I need a couple days off.”
Ain’t that the truth, homie. https://t.co/I9RUFWbegV

“My wrist is going to be fine, I just need a couple of days off from basketball. I have played every day since the beginning of the NBA season, so now I will rest a little and everything will be fine,” Doncic said about it.
