On August 17, in the European Championship warm-up match, Latvia defeated Slovenia 100-88. In this game, Doncic and Porzingis also staged a head-on battle. Doncic only played for 20 minutes and scored a comprehensive data of 26 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. In the second half, he was accidentally crushed by his teammates and injured his retreat. Posses scored 20 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block. With 1 of 5 in the first half, he scored 16 points in the second half, leading the team to successfully reverse the victory.

After missing the first two warm-up games in a row, Doncic's condition was very good in this game. He went crazy at the beginning of the game, hitting three-pointers in a row without solutions, and he could easily score points in the inside. Latvia's defense could not limit Doncic's performance. In the entire first quarter, Doncic scored 15 points and led the team to establish a 10-point lead.

After coming to the second quarter, Doncic's condition remained unabated. He continued to fire from the outside, and frequently hit the inside to commit fouls. He scored consecutive free throws and scored 11 points in a single quarter. In the whole first half, Doncic scored 26 points in just 17 minutes. However, except for Doncic, other players in Slovenia were in average condition. The team lost 8 points in a net in a quarter. After the half-time game, Slovenia only led Latvia by 2 points. After entering the third quarter, Doncic was accidentally injured by his teammate and was able to return to the locker room early. Fortunately, the injury was not serious and he returned to the bench soon. However, the coaching staff refused Doncic's request to continue playing in this game, considering the players' health issues, he did not continue playing. After the lack of Doncic, Slovenia's competitiveness also declined sharply, and Porzingis began to take over the game. He made consecutive jump shots without resolving, leading the team to a 27-13 offensive net victory of 14 points in a single quarter, and maintained the lead until the end of the final quarter. In the end, Latvia also successfully won the win of this warm-up match.

Although Doncic suffered an injury in this game, he still showed extremely strong energy in his limited playing time. He was unstoppable on the offensive end and could easily find his teammates in an open position. No matter what kind of defense he faced, Doncic could always use his own way to help the team. After losing weight, Doncic seemed to have a better self. If he could maintain such a state, then Doncic could perform better and win more honors in the European Championships or the NBA in the new season.
