Kyrie Irving (personal) will not play for Nets in Tuesday makeup
Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (personal) will not play Tuesday afternoon against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
What It Means:
Irving wasn't going to play on Monday and that will remain the case for Tuesday's makeup game. LaMarcus Aldridge (illness) is also out. There will be a starting spot for one of Bruce Brown, Landry Shamet, Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, or Chris Chiozza, but most of the offense should run through Kevin Durant and perhaps Blake Griffin.
numberFire's models project KD for 31.6 FanDuel points on Tuesday.
