Kyrie Irving Out of Mavericks’ Game Against Grizzlies Due to Right Heel Injury

Seattle Sports

It’s been a tough week for Kyrie Irving and the Dallas Mavericks. On Tuesday, the team announced that Irving would be out of the game against the Memphis Grizzlies due to a right heel injury.

The injury occurred during the Mavericks’ game against the Phoenix Suns on Sunday. Irving had to be helped off the court after suffering the injury in the fourth quarter. He was later diagnosed with a right heel contusion and was listed as day-to-day.

The news of Irving’s absence from the game against the Grizzlies is a big blow to the Mavericks. Irving has been a key part of the team’s success this season, averaging 24.7 points, 6.3 assists, and 4.9 rebounds per game. His presence on the court has been invaluable to the Mavericks, and his absence will be felt in this game.

The Mavericks will have to rely on other players to step up in Irving’s absence. Players like Luka Doncic, Tim Hardaway Jr., and Dorian Finney-Smith will need to increase their production if the Mavericks want to come away with a win.

It is unclear when Irving will be able to return to action. The Mavericks will likely take a cautious approach with his injury, as they don’t want to risk further damage. For now, it looks like Irving will have to sit out until he is fully healed.

It’s unfortunate that Kyrie Irving won’t be able to take part in this game against the Grizzlies, but hopefully he will be able to make a full recovery soon. The Mavericks will need him back on the court if they want to continue their success this season.
