OKLAHOMA CITY — Thursday night at Paycom Center went from bad to worse for the Lakers.

Star guard Luka Doncic left what was turning into a blowout loss during the third quarter because of a left hamstring injury.

Doncic was hobbling after a drive attempt against Thunder wing Jalen Williams midway through the third, limping to stay off his left leg before laying down underneath the basket by the Thunders’ bench. 

He appeared to aggravate a left hamstring ailment that he was dealing with in the first half but tried to play through.

Doncic walked off the court under his own power before going back to the locker room.
