Luka Doncic injury update: Latest on Lakers star’s offseason recovery ahead of training camp
Luka Doncic enters the 2026-27 season fully recovered from the Grade 2 left hamstring strain that ended his 2025-26 campaign and sidelined him for the Lakers' second-round playoff sweep to Oklahoma City. Confirmation came via a fan email relayed by The Athletic and a clearance report from ESPN's Dave McMenamin. The news is significant given the Lakers' offseason overhaul, which sent LeBron James to Philadelphia and left Doncic as the roster's unquestioned centerpiece heading into a Slovenia minicamp and September training camp.
