More on this storyline
Ohm Youngmisuk: Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving participated full practice today. So did Tim Hardaway Jr. Jason Kidd said the Mavs will see on their status tomorrow for the game against Lakers. Doncic will talk after shootaround tomorrow to give an update on his injury. -via Twitter @NotoriousOHM / March 16, 2023
Jovan Buha: From what I’ve been told, they’re not going to be pursuing Kyrie Irving this offseason… To my knowledge and to what I’ve been told, the Kyrie ship, I think, has sailed. You never want to say never. That could easily change, but as of right now, their plan is to run this (team) back. -via HoopsHype / March 16, 2023
Michael C. Wright: Kyrie Irving on his potential availability for Wednesday’s game in San Antonio: “We’re going to see, but it’s not looking good. It’s just my big toe. I do everything with my feet. So, I’ve just got to take a little bit more time.” -via Twitter @mikecwright / March 15, 2023
