Dallas Mavericks vs. Utah Jazz: 3 big questions and a prediction

How healthy will Luka Doncic be at the start of the series?

Luka Doncic suffered what the Mavs are calling a calf strain on the final day of the regular season. There’s currently no timetable for his availability, but it would be extremely surprising if he wasn’t ready to go for Game 1 of this series.

The real question is, how healthy will he be? When Luka is completely healthy, there aren’t many players in the league that can play up to his level. He’s an absolute superstar and can carry a team in a series.

If he’s not healthy, however, or even misses games in this series, the Mavs won’t have much of a chance against the Jazz. This is a storyline that all eyes will be on, with Game 1 just a few days away.
