Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic hasn't had the start to the season that most fans expected following his MVP-level season last year that helped take the Mavs all the way to the NBA Finals, and a large reason for that can be attributed to the various injuries that he has suffered over the last few months.

The Mavericks are 4-1 without Doncic this season. How much of a boost will the MVP-caliber star provide when he returns?

The Dallas Mavericks and Utah Jazz are set to go head-to-head on Saturday night. The Mavs are fresh off a 129-114 victory over the New York Knicks, while the Jazz were defeated by the Denver Nuggets 122-103 on Wednesday. Dallas is looking to take care of business on the road in Utah, but Luka Doncic's injury status will be worth closely monitoring.
