Injury Report: Kyrie Irving's Status for Mavericks vs. Grizzlies

With Luka Doncic already ruled out for Saturday night's game vs. the Memphis Grizzlies, his co-star Kyrie Irving also has his status in jeopardy. The star point guard is currently listed as questionable with right foot soreness, and he confirmed on Saturday morning that his status is still questionable.

This matchup between Memphis and Dallas has significant seeding implications for both teams. The Grizzlies are trying to regain their hold on the two-seed, while Dallas is desperately trying to avoid the play-in tournament. It has been a rough start to the Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving pairing for Dallas, but the team is optimistic that their star duo can do damage in a playoff setting.

With the Grizzlies being down Ja Morant, this game will be missing a significant amount of star power. Morant's absence is expected to last at least two more games beyond this one, but the league has still yet to suspend the star guard, so it is unclear how long he will be out in total.

There will be a lot of focus on who is not playing in this game between the Mavericks and Grizzlies, but the players who are on the floor will be motivated to get a crucial win for their respective squads. If Kyrie Irving is able to play, he will be expected to lead that charge for Dallas.
