Kyrie Irving Downgraded To Out Against Hawks
11 months agoDallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving (thumb) will be forced to miss a second consecutive game with a thumb sprain. He originally was listed as questionable for the opening injury report against the Atlanta Hawks but has been downgraded once more. Irving has been good for moderate periods this season but has already missed his fair share of games. The good thing for the Mavericks is that the rest of the backcourt is healthy so they won't have to scrounge at the bottom of the rotation to find someone to throw on the court. While Irving watches from the sidelines, Luka Doncic will be primed for a huge game. Meanwhile, Josh Green and Tim Hardaway Jr. could serve as stronger streaming options.
