00:00Kyrie Irving out tonight, maybe out one to two weeks.
00:18Yeah, get the back.
00:20It's a bulging disc in his back.
00:22You got to make sure you say that very slowly and very carefully because we have seen people
00:26get stung by that one.
00:29Missing two, one to two weeks, according to Shams and McMahon.
00:33So there's optimism.
00:34The treatment over the coming days will provide a return to play sooner rather than later.
00:38But that is just a crusher for a match final.
00:42And Luca can't even put pressure on his foot.
00:43You guys see him rolling around the other night like, yeah, this is this is not looking
00:46good for our Maverick Twitter doctor watching that video said four to six weeks for Luca,
00:52which would be all star break February 14th to 16th.
00:56So I think they're going to have to make a mad scramble to make the playoffs again.
00:59Yeah, that's the way this thing is.
01:01As they get set to visit the Grizzlies tonight, seven o'clock there in Tennessee, at least
01:05Najee Marshall's back from suspension.
01:08Let's go.
01:09Losers of four in a row.
01:10Yeah, they'll host the Lakers tomorrow.
01:12They could win these next two games.
01:13You know, I think without Luca and Kyrie, it's it's massive.
01:16But I thought they still have good players.
01:18I thought that about Portland and Sacramento, too, Dawson.
01:21I know.
