Hopefully Kyrie Irving only suffered a small injury Thursday against the OKC Thunder. With a little less than two minutes left in the second quarter, Irving had to be carried to the locker room after banging knees with Russell Westbrook. We’ll keep you updated on the severity of the injury as we hear more and again, hope it’s not serious.
Update on Irving’s injury via Rachel Nichols and Dave McMEnamin:
Kyrie Irving officially has left knee contusion, will return. Just told me "I'm good"

The Cavs diagnosed Irving with a L knee contusion at halftime. Determined no MRI was necessary. Kyrie could possibly play in 2nd half.
