Los Angeles Lakers superstar Luka Doncic was upgraded from questionable to probable for Monday night’s home game against the Utah Jazz.
Doncic’s much-anticipated debut since last week’s stunning trade has been delayed as he rehabs from a left calf strain. Doncic last played on Dec. 25 and had been targeting a return before the All-Star break.
The Lakers, who are taking a five-game winning streak into the matchup with Utah, will be giving away Doncic’s No. 77 jerseys at the arena. Doncic also announced Monday that his foundation will be donating $500,000 to help recovery efforts from the wildfires that ravaged L.A. last month.

Dalton Knecht, whom the Lakers sent to Charlotte as part of the Mark Williams trade that has since been rescinded, was also upgraded to probable for Monday night. Cam Reddish, who was also part of that trade, is listed as out due to personal reasons.
LeBron James is listed as probable with a left forearm strain.
