Latest news on Kyrie Irving’s injury status
Injury:
Status: Active
UPDATE (Mar. 27):
Kyrie Irving has been helpful since his arrival in a trade last month, even if he wasn’t at his best on Sunday when they lost.
In 35 minutes of action, Irving scored 18 points (5-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT), and added 4 boards, 3 assists, 1 block, and 2 steals.
The veteran guard has been dealing with a nagging foot injury and bouncing around the lineup, making it difficult for him to get his shot to fall over the last week or so.
UPDATE (Mar. 26):
Kyrie Irving will play against the Hornets on Sunday.
UPDATE (Mar. 24):
Kyrie Irving (foot) is questionable for Friday’s game against the Hornets.
Irving’s right foot pain has kept him out of action for the better part of six games.
UPDATE (Mar. 22):
Irving might not be able to play on Wednesday against Golden State because he hurt his foot.
Irving missed three games in a row because his right foot was sprained. He played in Dallas’s last two games, but his injury got worse during Monday’s loss to Memphis, so he may have to sit out again.
Update (Mar. 20):
Irving might not be able to play on Monday against Memphis because he hurt his foot.
After missing three games, Irving played against the Lakers on Friday. In 39 minutes, he scored 38 points, got six rebounds, and gave out six assists, so he didn’t seem to be limited in any way. Even though his right foot still hurts, it wouldn’t be surprising to see him play against the Grizzlies.
Update (Mar. 17):
Kyrie Irving (foot) has missed three straight games because of a sore right foot, but he was able to get in a full practice on Thursday before being listed as questionable.
The Mavs have only won six of their nine games since Kyrie joined the team.
Update (Mar. 15):
Irving (foot) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Spurs.
Due to his sore right foot, Irving has missed the last two games and may have to sit out a third.
Luka Doncic (thigh) has already been ruled out, while Tim Hardaway (calf) and Christian Wood (foot) are uncertain, so it appears like Jaden Hardy and Josh Green could be in store for greater workloads again.
Update (Mar. 13):
After hurting his foot, Irving may not be able to play against Memphis on Monday.
Jaden Hardy started on Saturday since Kyrie Irving hurt his foot. He ended up playing 37 minutes and contributing 22 points, 2 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 three-pointers, 1 steal, and 3 turnovers. Due to the likelihood that Luka Doncic will miss more time for the Mavericks if Kyrie Irving is out, Hardy becomes a very attractive streaming option (thigh)
Update (Mar. 11):
Right foot soreness has made Kylie Irving (personal) questionable for Saturday’s game against the Grizzlies.
Irving wasn’t at Friday’s practice due to a personal matter, but he’s being labeled questionable Saturday because of a foot issue instead.
Update (Mar. 05):
When they beat the Philadelphia 76ers 133-126 on Thursday, it looked like they had figured out some things because both Doncic and Irving played well.
Irving had 40 points (15-22 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 4 boards, 6 assists, and 3 steals in 42 minutes.
As a Maverick, Irving played his best game. It was the first time he had scored 40 points since late January. The Mavs have lost more games than they have won since they moved to Dallas. If the Mavs want to make some noise in the playoffs, they need to stop doing this.
