Coach JJ Redick stated after the game that Dončić had an ankle “tweak.”
“I’m good,” said Dončić, who finished with 32 points. “Obviously painful a little bit, but I’ll be fine.”
ESPN’s Shams Charania reported Thursday that Dončić “actually woke up with no pain.
“He’s feeling good. He will go through his normal treatment process,” Charania said.
Dončić is expected to play against the Phoenix Suns in the Lakers’ next game on Nov. 15.
