Kyrie Irving Out for Mavericks Due to Illness

Kyrie Irving will not play for the Dallas Mavericks because he is dealing with an illness. The team announced that he is out, and this news comes after previous shoulder issues. Irving has been a key player for the Mavericks, but his health has kept him from playing.

What It Means

Irving’s absence will impact the Mavericks’ performance on the court. He averages 24.3 points per game and has been shooting well with a field goal percentage of 49% and a three-point percentage of 44.1%. His scoring ability is important to the team’s success.

With Kyrie out, Spencer Dinwiddie may see more playing time as he is next in line on the depth chart. Dinwiddie averages 9.3 points per game and plays about 22.7 minutes per game. The team will need him to step up in Irving’s absence.
