MEMPHIS — Look at the positive, Mavericks fans:
Superstar guard Kyrie Irving appeared to have little lingering effects from a right ankle injury he suffered midway through Dallas’ 112-108 loss Monday night against the Memphis Grizzlies.
Though he lay on the court in pain when trash-talking, bully-ball defender Dillon Brooks stepped on the back of his foot, Irving finished the game after coach Jason Kidd and All-Star teammate Luka Doncic checked on him, and led another steady offensive performance with 28 points in 33 minutes.
