The Luka Doncic injury treatment memes were out of control
Luka Doncic’s health status during the NBA Finals has been a big topic of discussion, and it’s easy to see why.
Doncic has dealt with multiple injuries throughout the playoffs and looked very hobbled in the first two games of the NBA Finals between his Dallas Mavericks and the Boston Celtics. Doncic even underwent a pain-killing injection ahead of Game 3 of the NBA Finals.
Though Doncic has put up fine offensive numbers, he is not moving well and has been a liability on defense at times.
The way that Doncic looked while walking into TD Garden in Boston for Game 2, plus how he was wrapped up ahead of the game, led to plenty of memes.

Not many people can relate to the way Doncic plays basketball, but they all can relate to the feeling of having a stiff body and moving poorly.
Game 3 of the series is Wednesday night in Dallas with Boston leading 2-0. Mavericks fans are hoping the switch to their home arena will help their team. Maybe the treatment Doncic has received will also be helpful.
