Irving swallows blood, “Mavs” are injured so much that they are going out to sea. kodpun88 

kodpun88  Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving admitted that multiple injuries have made things worse, most recently in their 105-110 loss to the Charlotte Hornets. kodpun88 

The Mavs have been struggling since star guard Luka Doncic suffered a left calf strain and have lost nine of their last 12 games. 

Inside lineup: Derek Lively (right ankle sprain), guard Quentin Grimes (back sprain), or backups Jaden Hardy (foot sprain), Dwight Powell (hip) and Dante Exum (right wrist surgery). 

A series of injuries has made Irving see it as a challenge to overcome. 

“It would be nice to get to this point in the season where everyone is healthy,” he told the Dallas Morning News. kodpun88
