Kyrie Irving's return from injury could determine whether the Mavericks salvage their season.
The Dallas Mavericks' backcourt has been their biggest weakness all season long, and Kyrie Irving's return to the floor is the simplest fix to this longstanding issue.
Irving has been out for the entire season after tearing his ACL in March of last year, but his return is on the horizon. He is expected to be cleared to play at some point after the All-Star break, but the Mavericks are unsure if they'll bring him back.
