SHOCK: OFFICIAL LAKERS REPORT CONFIRMS LUKA DONCIC REMAINS SIDELINED FOR TUESDAY NIGHT SUNS GAME
Luka Doncic is officially out for the Lakers vs Suns game as the team manages his recurring left calf contusion.
So, Luka Doncic is out tonight because of a leg bruise he got against the Clippers. Here's the lowdown on what's going on and when he might be back.
Why Isn't Luka Playing?
Luka's sitting this one out because of that lower left leg contusion—a bruise he picked up in the Clippers game last Saturday. The Lakers are in Phoenix on Tuesday, December 23, trying to get back on track after that Clippers loss. They were down big at halftime and couldn't catch up after Luka left. GCStateSports on X said Luka's out, along with Rui Hachimura and Gabe Vincent.
Before the Phoenix game, the Lakers said Luka's officially out with the leg bruise, so no surprises there. Redick mentioned this isn't the first time Luka's had calf issues this season, and it's a bit worrying that it's acting up again after some rough play. LukaUpdates on X also said he's out with the same injury.
Without Luka, Austin Reaves and the other guards have to step up, and guys who usually don't get many chances will need to create more plays. These games show how much the team relies on Luka. Remember those times in Dallas when he was out, and the offence just stalled?
What Happened to Him?
Luka hurt his lower left leg in the first half against the Clippers. He tried to play through it, but after halftime, when the pain got worse, he had to stop. He had 12 points, five rebounds, and two assists in 19 minutes, but he wasn't moving well, turned it over four times, and couldn't get his usual jump. LALMuse on X reported that Luka wouldn't be back that night, and the Lakers confirmed the leg bruise.
The team doctors said it's a calf contusion—no tear or fracture, just a deep bruise. Putting weight on it is painful; Lakers coach Redick saw him limping toward the end of the half. Doncic apparently told him he couldn't keep going.
When's He Coming Back?
Right now, they're calling him day-to-day. People are saying he might be back as soon as the Lakers' Christmas Day game against the Houston Rockets if his leg gets better with treatment. Some are even saying Christmas is a possible return date, with the team looking into extra padding for his leg.
It doesn't seem like he'll be out for long, but calf bruises can be tricky if he comes back too soon. It's not clear if the doctors will clear him for the next game, but the team thinks it'll be a week or so, not longer.
Injury Report and What It Means
So, Luka's out with the leg bruise. The Lakers also have other guys out long-term, which means Redick has had to shorten his rotation. The Suns have some health issues, too, but the big news is still Luka being out. Someone noted that the betting line changed a lot once they knew Luka wouldn't play.
KENDRICK BOURNE REVEALS THE STRICT DISCIPLINE THAT SPARKED THE PATRIOTS' TURNAROUND
Kendrick Bourne speaks out! Discover why he thinks Mike Vrabel is the right fit and why he’s eyeing a 2026 return to the 49ers.
Kendrick Bourne’s path through the NFL has zigzagged all over – some highs, plenty of lows, and now, another fresh start. He took a shot with the Patriots in 2025 after building his reputation with the 49ers. But honestly, that New England chapter ended before it even got going. Bourne didn’t just slip out the back door. He left with a lot to say about what he saw brewing in New England as Mike Vrabel took charge.
Once Vrabel arrived, you didn’t need to listen for rumours about a culture shift; it was obvious. Bourne noticed right away. He’s already got his eyes set on home, back with the 49ers, but even from a distance, he could see the Patriots were heading somewhere new long before their record showed it.
Talking about his exit from New England, Bourne didn’t sugarcoat anything. Losing the job itself wasn’t the hardest part. What stung was watching Vrabel put his stamp on the team, laying down the kind of structure and discipline Bourne knew would eventually pay off. He was blunt; things just felt different under Vrabel compared to before.
He put it like this: “After going through OTAs and camp with Vrabes, you just knew. Nothing against Mayo, but he just wasn’t ready. With Vrabes, the structure was totally different in how we studied, how we met, and just the whole vibe. Honestly, I was sad about it.”
This wasn’t just a guy being bitter. Bourne respected what was happening in New England and genuinely wished he could have been part of it, especially with a Super Bowl push on the horizon. He even admitted he’d wanted to be in that locker room when the Patriots finally made it back to the big stage.
Now he’s back with the 49ers, hoping to stick around. At 30, Bourne wants a new contract in San Francisco. He had a solid 2025, racked up 551 yards, picked up a contract bonus, and gave the offence a spark. The 49ers needed reliable hands, and Bourne delivered. He’s clear: he wants to stay, but only if the deal makes sense for him.
So now, the offseason gets interesting. Bourne knows where he fits best, but he’s still keeping an eye on what’s building in New England. That mix of looking back and chasing what’s next makes this part of his career one to pay attention to.
MRI SCARE: STEVE KERR ADMITS STEPH CURRY’S "NEBULOUS" KNEE MAY REQUIRE SECOND IMAGING
Warriors crisis! Discover why Steph Curry may need another MRI and how Jimmy Butler’s ACL tear shifts GSW to the play-in.
The Warriors have been scrambling since Jimmy Butler went down with that ACL tear. He’s done for the year, and now Stephen Curry has to carry the offence on his own.
Right after the All-Star break, the Warriors are sitting in eighth place out West. That’s already shaky, and now Curry’s dealing with a knee injury too. The team calls it runner's knee; basically, he just needs time to heal. But then Steve Kerr gave an update that didn’t exactly inspire confidence.
Turns out, Curry might need another MRI. He tried to push through a full workout, but his knee just wasn’t right. Now, they’re waiting on imaging to figure out how long he’ll actually be out.
Meanwhile, Kristaps Porzingis still hasn’t suited up for Golden State. If Curry misses significant time, everyone else needs to step up in a big way. The Warriors already have one of the most average offences in the league, 15th at the break. No curry, and things get ugly fast. He’s already missed 16 games this season, and the team went 6-10 without him.
Losing Butler already knocked the Warriors out of serious contention. They’re pretty much locked into the play-in. Unless Curry suddenly goes supernova, it’s hard to see them catching the Thunder or making any real noise out West.
So, what’s next? The front office tried to swing big at the deadline, going after Giannis Antetokounmpo, though who knows if the Bucks ever really considered it. Giannis stayed put, but you can bet the Warriors will chase him again this summer.
If that doesn’t work, they’ll turn to other stars. They know the championship window is closing with Curry still on the roster. He’s still elite, but time’s ticking.
LeBron James even comes up as a possibility. If he declines his player option and hits free agency, maybe he’d team up with Curry for one last run at a ring.
Most likely, though, Golden State will look at trades instead of free agents to try to reload. Curry’s health isn’t what it used to be, and the Warriors know they have to make the most of whatever prime he’s got left.
