The Dallas Mavericks got their 13th win of the routine season on Friday. The 125-112 win over the Portland Trail Blazers showed to be expensive, as Kyrie Irving left the contest in the very first half with an obvious foot injury.
Irving was fouled near the basketball late in the 2nd quarter, triggering the Mavericks point player to be up to the flooring. Irving’s colleague Dwight Powell then unintentionally stepped on Irving’s foot. The eight-time All-Star was noticeably in discomfort and stay down on the court’s wood for a number of minutes.
Irving had the ability to shoot a set of totally free toss efforts. Sixth-year Mavs gamer Tim Hardawway Jr. then rapidly drew a nasty in order to offer Irving a chance to replace out of the video game. Irving was required to the locker space location for additional examination. He was eventually dismissed for the rest of the video game.
