Marc Stein with the latest AD injury update:
“Based on everything I’m told he’s not fully back on the court yet. When practices start on September 30th, will AD even be ready to practice? We don’t know that yet. So it’s not just the potential of starting the season without Kyrie, Is AD going to be ready to go on opening night against San Antonio? October 22 ain’t that far away.”

Mark Cuban on selling the team to the wrong people:
“I f—ed up. When I did the deal, the presumption was that I would still be running basketball. We tried putting it in the contract. But the NBA said, ‘The governor is the governor, and they make all final decisions.”
“Do you know ball? Prove it in the comments!
– Will AD play on opening night? P for Play, S for Sit
– Most to Blame? Nico Harrison, Mark Cuban or Other”

Will AD play on opening night? P for Play, S for Sit
October 22nd is legit far away, thats almost dam near November. We have so much time in between then from now lmao what. This is a non story until next month. Im mad I clicked on this.
A detached retina is very serious. There is no way he played with a detached retina. They are so serious that you need IMMEDIATE medical attention or you could go blind. Something else is going on. They aren't being truthful. Doubt me? Go look up things on detached retinas.
P…I am optimistic until I know otherwise
N
Dumbest trade EVER 😂😂😂
Let's go LA Luka
hahahahahaha. u get what u pay for
with his retina detached atleast he has a good excuse for being the worst dressed person in all of history…
cuban has no shame
I wouldn't read too much into this. Stein is just doing his job reporting on what he knows and speculating on what it could mean. I have suffered a partial and a full retinal detachment. The full detachment that required surgery took about 10 weeks to heal enough to receive a full release to normal activity. If his surgery was July 8th, guess where we are now …. right about the 10 week mark. I love my Retinal Specialist but I am positive AD had his procedure done by the best of the best and is where he needs to be. Opening Night is 41 days away and, if we're being honest, given his injury history I am not going to get too upset that he isn't out there grinding on a court right now.
Let's go Mavs 😎💯👍
S… sad but true
Street Clothes
Lmao everytime I see a AD thumbnail, I think he's injured
LMAO. He isn't even going to be available for opening night? I guarantee you he is out for the season before the beginning of the New year.
Fragile basket 😂😂!!
Thank God we got cooper
Without cooper I would still be pissed but atleast we got coop pj d live gafferd naji all gamers
So he didn't make it worse by playing and he was a man and got out there and put himself at risk for our team. One that he was traded too.
Im not as mad at Cuban as others. He got swindled. 😢
AI Overview
Luka Dončić has missed approximately 94 games over the past six NBA seasons, playing in 422 out of 524 total games from his debut through the end of the 2023-24 season, or roughly 15.5 games per season.
The figures are based on his NBA career from the 2018-19 season through the 2023-24 season. The 2024-25 season was in progress at the time of the data, and those games are not included in the final calculation.
AD is much younger than Luka. No excuse for his lack of participation. Well, maybe his conditioning.
