Kyrie Irving’s ACL injury was a huge blow for the Dallas Mavericks, but Shams Charania has provided fans with an update on when they can expect to see him again. Things went from bad to worse for the Dallas Mavericks on the court after they traded Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers on February 2nd,

Irving is one of the best guards of his generation with a resume that includes a championship, nine All-Star nods, a Rookie of the Year and three All-NBA selections. He will be the leader of the team's backcourt once he does return, especially since Dončić is no longer on the roster. And that return is expected in January.

The Dallas Mavericks have set an optimistic return target for Kyrie Irving after the guard tore his ACL in March 2025.
