Kyrie Irving Seen Shooting Five Months After ACL Surgery

Dallas has not set a return date and is emphasizing a cautious rehab.

Overview

  • A new clip from the NBPA facility in New York shows Irving taking non-contact shots as part of his recovery work.
  • On an Aug. 26 livestream, he said he is "healing up great" and called his progress "incremental growth" five months post-operation.
  • Neither Irving nor the Mavericks have offered a timetable, and he previously said he does not want to predict when he will be back.
  • ACL recoveries often take close to a year, underscoring medical advice not to rush his return.
  • Dallas signed D’Angelo Russell and brought back Dante Exum to support the backcourt while Irving rehabs.
