After nearly two weeks in Europe, the prodigal son has returned. 

Luka Doncic returned to Los Angeles on Friday on the eve of the Lakers’ first-round playoff series against the Rockets. 

Doncic suffered a Grade 2 hamstring strain on April 2 in Oklahoma City, and after receiving imaging in Dallas, he jet-setted to Spain to receive treatment on his hamstring that could potentially expedite the healing process and his return to the court.

After a week in Madrid, Doncic spent the weekend in Slovenia to spend time with his two daughters before returning to Spain for further treatment. 

On Thursday, Doncic was spotted sitting courtside alongside tennis star Novak Djokovic at a Real Madrid Baloncesto game, soaking in the arena that once raised him.

By Friday afternoon, that journey ended where it matters most — home. The California Post spotted Doncic arriving at his Manhattan Beach residence about 5:30 p.m.

About an hour after arriving home, Doncic left on an e-bike with an unidentified male.

The Lakers announced on Friday that Doncic and Austin Reaves would be out for Game 1 of the series, but both are expected to be on the bench for Saturday’s game.
