Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving gave an update on his recovery from a torn ACL via Twitch, saying he is now close to full strength.

“I am definitely close to being over at 100% in terms on my ACL recovery,” Irving said. “It’s been a while now. … I’m just so grateful that I’ve had the time to heal and just experiment with my body more on the court.”

The nine-time All-Star has been sidelined since his injury March 3, 2025. During the 2024-25 campaign, he averaged 24.7 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4.6 assists over 50 games (all starts), while shooting 40.1% from 3-point range.

Last season, the Mavericks struggled without the 34-year-old veteran, limping to a 26-56 record.

A return means Irving will be able to pair NBA Rookie of the Year Cooper Flagg next season.
