Kyrie Irving Injures Leg, Tests Negative 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed Oct 8, 2014 6:26 pm

Kyrie Irving suffered a lower right leg injury before the Cleveland Cavaliers flew to Brazil for their preseason game against the Miami Heat.


Irving was using a walking boot as he left with teammates for sightseeing on the team's day off.


Irving received X-rays and an MRI on Tuesday before the team charter left. Both tests were negative and he's considered day to day.

Worst thing that can happen to this Cleveland team is injuries: not so sure LeBron would be overly happy to carry this team if Irving and/or Love pick up serious injuries...or if they sit more than half the season like Wade did...

That's mostly because they were tanking. His injuries were pretty minor.

He always seem to have some kind of "minor injury" for those three years. That doesn't just stop when he gets older.

No, he didn't. Get your facts straight before you type.

That injury probably got re-aggrivated when he slammed dunked on that nerf hoop too hard. Im pretty sure he got injured then.

Love and Irving both only average 60 games per season for their careers.
So the Spurs aren't the only obstacle for LeBron.
LeBron's star teammates, are just as tricky.
