Irving out for matchup versus Mavericks
It looks like Kyrie Irving won’t be suiting up on Friday versus the Mavericks. The 26-year-old point guard will sit out his second straight game due to an inflamed eye injury, according to Celtics coach Brad Stevens.
#NEBHInjuryReport Kyrie got a light workout in yesterday, but his eye is still too inflamed to be able to play tonight, according to Brad Stevens. He could be back as early as Monday night.
