4 years agoBrooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving will miss Saturday's game versus Orlando as he continues to work through the league's health and safety protocols after a prolonged absence due to personal reasons. Irving last suited up back on Jan. 5, with the landscape of his teammates having changed significantly from the last time that he was on the floor. Irving's fantasy value undoubtedly took a slight ding from James Harden's acquisition, but he has shot a career-best 50.4 percent from the floor through his first seven contests, all while averaging 27.1 points, 6.1 assists, and 5.3 rebounds per night. Irving was trending toward getting the green light to play before ultimately having it walked back, so fantasy managers can expect to see him on the court Monday against Milwaukee.--Jesse Borek
