Dallas Mavericks star point guard Luka Doncic is sitting out Saturday afternoon's home game against the Sacramento Kings due to a sprained left toe.

Doncic is expected back for Monday's home game against the Utah Jazz.

Doncic, a three-time All-Star, had a superb outing in Thursday's 122-113 home win over the Golden State Warriors. He had 41 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists.
