Luka Doncic left the game with a calf injury. (0:32)
The Dallas Mavericks star suffered a left calf strain in the team's regular-season finale, according to a source.
The source said there is no timetable for Doncic's return. The source said that he could not be ruled out for the first game of the series against Utah.
After jumping to throw a pass and grabbing his calf, Doncic asked for a timeout with 2:24 remaining in the third quarter of Sunday's 130-120 win over the San Antonio Spurs. Doncic hobbled to the locker room after a brief discussion with the director of player health and performance.
The media did not speak to Doncic because he was getting treatment.
A picture of Doncic wearing a protective boot on his foot as he walked into the hospital with Smith was posted on the social networking site.
"For some reason, I feel like he will be ready to go, knowing the competitor that he is." It is unfortunate, but a competitor like that can keep up.
The Mavericks had an off day Monday and will practice Tuesday, after which coach Kidd will speak to reporters.
The All-NBA selection averaged 28.6 points, 9.1 rebound and 8.7 assists this season. He would have been suspended for the regular-season finale after being called for his 16th technical foul of the season in Friday's game, but the NBA office reversed the decision on Saturday.
