The Dallas Mavericks have missed Luka Doncic for five straight games, and now Kyrie Irving's health may be in question too.
The All-Star point guard was seen wearing a walking boot on his right foot after Monday's loss to the Memphis Grizzlies, according to ESPN's Tim MacMahon. He reportedly said the boot was"just precautionary" and that he hopes to play Wednesday against the Golden State Warriors, but there is concern he aggravated the foot injury that caused him to miss three games earlier this month.
Kyrie Irving is wearing a walking boot on his right foot. “It’s just precautionary,” he said. He hopes to play Wednesday vs. Warriors. He said the concern is the foot injury he re-aggravated, not the ankle he twisted.The Mavericks haven't had Irving and Doncic play in the same game since March 8. Irving returned from the foot injury on March 17 and looked good as ever, scoring 38 points in a win over the Los Angeles Lakers, but was apparently still playing through the pain,"I just need to take care of it. I said this a few days ago, it's a little bit worse than I thought, but I'm just going to manage it.Not exactly what you want to hear when you're the 36-36 Mavericks and in the middle of the highly compressed Western Conference standings.
Doncic remains out with a left thigh injury. He was questionable to play Monday before being eventually ruled out and practiced in full last week, but the team can only hope he and Irving are ready for that must-win game against the Warriors on Wednesday.
