The match of the year is played by Dallas Mavericks!
The Texans have done well this season, are one breath away from elimination and play a crucial game against the Bullsknowing that in the event of a defeat, they will say goodbye to the postseason definitively and irrevocably!
However, Dallas will not have all of its “weapons” available for this pivotal matchup. Specifically, the team announced that the Kyrie Irving he will miss the game against the Chicago team because he has a right leg injury that still hasn’t healed.
He won’t be the only player absent from Friday’s game though, as Josh Green will also be out, Tim Hardaway Jr (left ankle pain), Maxi Kleber (right hamstring injury rehabilitation) and Christian Wood.
It is surprising that the Wood and Green they are not injured and will be absent for rest reasons. Perhaps this is indicative of a tanking move for Dallas, who if they wanted to win the game would likely activate all available players.
Kyrie Irving (right foot injury recovery), Josh Green (rest), Tim Hardaway Jr. (left ankle soreness), Maxi Kleber (right hamstring injury recovery) and Christian Wood (rest) will all miss tonight’s game against the Bulls.
