Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Dončić will miss tonight's game due to a back injury, the team announced Wednesday.
The Slovenian guard-forward has been listed as out for the contest, with the Lakers citing back soreness as the reason for his absence.
Dončić, who joined the Lakers in a blockbuster trade earlier this year, has been a key contributor for the team this season. His absence leaves a significant void in the lineup as Los Angeles prepares to face their opponent.
The Lakers have not provided a specific timeline for Dončić's return, but the team's medical staff will continue to evaluate his condition on a day-to-day basis.
