I've not heard anything about this, and that's my concern. I don't want him and the Mavs to push to the point where he does some permanent damage.
I trust the Mavs not to push him harder than he wants. But it's out of their hands. If Luka can walk, he plays in these games, and trying to stop him is likely the only way left that the FO could damage their relationship with him. If there's permanent damage 1) it will be Luka's fault, and 2) there was never, ever, any way to prevent it.
