Small scare for Luka Doncic but big concern for Vlatko Cancar

When Luka Doncic limp, it’s all of Slovenia and Dallas together who are shaking… Friday evening, two minutes before half-time of the meeting between Greece and Slovenia, we saw Doncic limp after contact with Georgios Papagiannis. Even if he remained on the field until the return to the locker room, the Mavericks point guard did not reappear afterwards.

Inevitably, everyone wondered about this absence in the second half. According ESPNnothing alarming, and it was expected that Doncic, author of 18 points, did not play the second half.

On the other hand, the concern is very great for the fate of Vlatko Cancar, the Nuggets winger. After a huge transition dunk, Cancar landed badly and immediately grabbed his left knee. The Slovenian had to be helped by his teammates to leave the field, and he will undergo an MRI to find out the severity of the injury.

“We hope it will be positive” reacted his teammate Jordan Morgan. “Only MRI will give an answer. From what I understood, the first tests were reassuring. We’ll see… We all hope so because it’s an important element for us. »
