Doncic, who is currently with his national team, was on the court after missing the last two friendlies, and appeared in the clash against Latvia. The game soon sent scares for Lakers fans as Doncic got hurt early in the second half after his teammate collided with him.&nbsp;<\/p><p>In the early third quarter, when Doncic was defending under the rim, his teammate Gregor Hrovat accidentally crashed into his right knee. The five-time NBA All-Star, who had already posted 26 points, four rebounds, and five assists by then, winced in pain and remained on the floor for a few minutes. Moments after it, he walked off the court and went to Slovenia&rsquo;s locker room.&nbsp;<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Luka Doncic injured playing for Slovenia but seems to have avoided anything serious, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DanWoikeSports?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@danwoikesports<\/a>.
