Luka Doncic Receives Injections to Accelerate Hamstring Injury Recovery

Luka Doncic said Wednesday he was given platelet-rich plasma injections in Spain in an effort to speed up his eight-week timeline for return from the hamstring injury. The player described being injured during his team's playoff run as very frustrating. He received the injections as part of treatment to accelerate healing from the injury that has kept him sidelined.

The eight-week timeline was initially set for his return to play. The platelet-rich plasma injections are intended to reduce that recovery period. Doncic provided the update as his team advances in the postseason.

The injury has limited his participation during a key part of the schedule.
