Kyrie Irving returning with Kevin Durant out for Nets’ huge 76ers clash
NY Post
Brooklyn will get back Kyrie Irving – and lose a whole lot more for Wednesday night’s first-place showdown in Philadelphia.
While Irving is set to return after missing Tuesday’s blowout win in Minnesota for family reasons, the Nets are going to be woefully shorthanded. Kevin Durant, James Harden, LaMarcus Aldridge, Blake Griffin, Spencer Dinwiddie, Tyler Johnson and now Chris Chiozza will all be inactive, leaving the Nets with just 10 players.More Related News
