5 years agoBrooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving scored 20 points with four assists, three rebounds, three triples, two steals, and a block in a 128-113 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. Irving returned from his injury on January 12 and promptly scored 21 and 32 points on red-hot shooting, but he's since cooled off. It's nothing to be concerned about, considering the 76ers, Bucks, and Lakers- his last three opponents- are three of the best defensive teams in the league. A Saturday matchup with the Pistons could be just what the doctor ordered for Irving, seeing as he dropped a triple-double in his last meeting with Detroit.--Tim Capurso
