Is Luka Doncic Playing Tonight? (Latest Injury Updates and News for Mavericks vs 76ers on March 29)
By Larry Rupp

The Dallas Mavericks are back in action Wednesday night as they face the Philadelphia 76ers at 7:30 p.m. ET on ESPN. One player's status to keep an eye on ahead of tip-off is Luka Doncic, who has been battling a thigh injury as of late.
Luka Doncic Injury Update (3/29/2023)
Doncic is not listed on the Mavericks' injury report, meaning he is good to go on Wednesday. The Slovenian superstar has averaged 32.3 points, 9.0 rebounds and 9.8 assists in the four games he has played since returning from a five-game absence. The thigh injury seems to not be a worry anymore.
Maxi Kleber (right hamstring injury recovery) and Frank Ntilikina (right knee sprain) are both questionable for tomorrow night’s game in Philadelphia.

It is worth noting Doncic was in danger of missing Monday's game against the Pacers before his 16th technical foul of the season was rescinded. One more technical foul and Doncic will be handed a one-game suspension, which would loom large given Dallas remains on the outside of the playoff picture.
The Mavericks currently check in 11th in the Western Conference with a 37-39 record, but are only behind the Oklahoma City Thunder because of a head-to-head tiebreaker. Dallas needs Doncic to lead the squad to a few wins down the stretch and it starts with an exciting matchup against Philly.
