Luka Doncic's Lakers-Thunder Game 1 status officially revealed

Luka Doncic has been officially ruled out for Game 1 of the Lakers-Thunder Round 2 playoff series due to a hamstring strain he suffered on April 2 against Oklahoma City. Doncic, who averaged 33.5 points, 8.3 assists, and 7.7 rebounds in 64 regular-season games, has been sidelined for over a month and his Game 2 status is also uncertain. The Lakers, who defeated the Houston Rockets in six games in Round 1, will need LeBron James and a recently returned Austin Reaves to compensate for Doncic's absence.
