Luka DonÄiÄ was visibly impacted by a stomach bug during Game 3 against the Wolves, leading to subpar performance and concerns about his recovery ahead of Game 4. Reports indicated that he managed to rest more effectively leading up to the next game. Head coach JJ Redick expressed optimism about Luka's condition, noting that although he might not fully recover, any improvement is significant. The Lakers face pressure in Game 4 to avoid a 3-1 deficit in the series, making Luka's health crucial for their chances of reclaiming homecourt advantage.
From the onset of Game 3 against the Wolves on Friday, it was clear that Luka DonÄiÄ was far from 100%. Having dealt with a stomach bug for the 24 hours leading up to the game, Luka looked drained physically and, as a result, had his worst showing of the playoffs yet.
JJ Redick on Luka Doncic: "He's feeling better". Because of the quick turnaround, it seems unlikely for Luka to be all the way back to full strength, but being better than he was on Friday is a huge boost.
