Luke Doncic has been ruled out of Saturday's game by the Dallas Mavericks against the Los Angeles Clippers due to a left heel contusion. Doncic also missed the Mavericks' 118-95 loss on Thursday against the Clippers.

Kyrie Irving, who also missed Thursday's game, is not on the injury report for Saturday's game.

With Doncic sitting on Saturday, he will have accrued eight missed games this season. Players can only miss 17 games before they are ineligible for end-of-season awards. Doncic has already qualified for a supermax contract in 2025.
