Kyrie Irving on track for Mavericks debut Wednesday
Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving remains on track to make his debut Wednesday against the Los Angeles Clippers, per head coach Jason Kidd.
What It Means:
Irving and Markieff Morris practiced with the Mavericks for the first time on Tuesday and they are both expected to be available on Wednesday. Luka Doncic (heel) will remain out versus the Clippers, so Irving figures to lead the way on offense for Dallas in his first game with the team. Delon Wright figures to move to the second unit on Wednesday and there will be fewer opportunities for Tim Hardaway Jr., Josh Green, McKinley Wright IV, and Jaden Hardy.
numberFire's models project Kyrie for 37.4 minutes and 45.0 FanDuel points on Wednesday in his Mavericks debut, with 26.5 points, 4.9 rebounds, 6.0 assists, 1.2 steals, and 3.3 3-pointers.
