For the first time in 2020-21, Kyrie Irving has to play a game without Kevin Durant. The Brooklyn forward was sent off for Monday’s game against Memphis Grizzlies, with the team citing “injury recovery” as the reason.
Of course, Spencer Dinwiddie will also not be available against the Grizzlies on Monday. The guard confirmed that a proper ACL was partially torn Monday after he was injured on Sunday. The team has announced that he will have surgery next week, but the Nets have not set a timetable for his return – although Shams Charania of Athletic reports that Dinwiddie is out for the rest of the season. the season.
Nic Claxton (right knee tendinopathy) is still missing for the nets.
Safe to say, Brooklyn ‘s starting lineup on Monday will look very different from the one that was drawn in the first three games of the season.
On the other hand, the Grizzlies are still without Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee), as well as Justise Winslow (hip).
