Kyrie Irving, Tim Hardaway Jr. Both Practicing Monday
5 months agoDallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving (foot) and forward Tim Hardaway Jr. (back) participated in practice on Monday. Though role players Grant Williams (knee), Josh Green (elbow), and Maxi Kleber (toe) were all out of Monday's session, Dallas would seem to have a good opportunity to get Irving and Hardaway back from their respective injuries. Irving couldn't suit up for Saturday's game versus the Oklahoma City Thunder with right foot soreness, but his presence at practice would suggest he's on the right side of questionable for Wednesday's tilt vs. the Utah Jazz. Back spasms have kept Hardaway out of the Mavs' latest two contests, on the other hand, but he'll hope to rejoin head coach Jason Kidd's lineup alongside Irving against the Jazz. It remains to be seen if the two offensive-minded contributors are able to continue practicing ahead of Wednesday's action, but we'll keep a close eye on their statuses up until then.
