What happened
Luka Dončić sat out the Lakers’ preseason game against Golden State on Tuesday for rest, and the report says he was not injured. The matchup ended in a 101-89 Lakers loss in Las Vegas.
He was still shown on the broadcast during a timeout, and the article notes his reaction to a dancing fan later went viral online. The piece adds that the Lakers will need to manage his activity over the season.
This is a short-term rest note rather than an injury concern, so Dončić’s preseason availability still appears to be managed. His workload should remain something to watch as the Lakers sort out regular-season rotation roles.
