On a recent Monday night, the Los Angeles Lakers clinched a win against the Houston Rockets, maintaining their position at fourth in the Western Conference standings. Luka Doncic, despite repeatedly injuring his left elbow during the game, managed to score 20 points. He later appeared before the press with his elbow significantly bandaged, prompting inevitable inquiries about his condition.

He responded with a touch of humor.

“It’s terrible, it’s hurt,” declared Doncic, before reassuringly adding, “will be fine in two days.”

This scenario was a classic instance of “call an ambulance … but not for me”. Both Doncic and his teammate LeBron James have been playing despite injuries throughout the season. They are well aware that the success of the Lakers hinges on their ability to perform, regardless of minor injuries. A mere elbow issue won’t hold back their efforts to fulfill the expectations set by what many consider the most significant trade in NBA history.

Indeed, repeatedly injuring the same area does sound quite painful and troublesome.
