Amid a four-game losing streak, the precipitation of bad news is not letting up for the Dallas Mavericks. According to Shams Charania and Tim MacMahon, Kyrie Irving will miss "one to two weeks," with a bulging back disc.

It comes on the heels of star backcourt-mate Luka Dončić leaving with injury on Christmas Day that will keep Dončić out for at least a month. The team has been sore for scoring since the injury, puttijng up 100 or fewer points in three of six contests including Christmas and is now down its two strongest scoring threats.
