Kyrie Irving Will Miss Remainder of Season as He Continues ACL Tear Recovery, Dallas Mavericks Say
- The Dallas Mavericks confirmed Wednesday that nine-time All-Star Kyrie Irving will not return for the remainder of the 2025-26 NBA season, announced two days before the All-Star break.
- On March 3, 2025, Irving tore the ACL in his left knee during a game against the Sacramento Kings, and an MRI confirmed the tear leading to ACL reconstruction surgery in March 2025.
- The Mavericks are 75-53 with Irving and 42-75 without him, struggling in their 19-35 record and nine-game losing streak after the All-Star break.
- The move positions the roster around youth development, as Kyrie Irving is expected back for the 2026-27 season and will stay in rehab under team supervision.
- Amid front-office changes after Nico Harrison's firing, Dallas signaled a rebuild earlier this month by trading Anthony Davis, focusing on youth over playoff contention.
