The Dallas Mavericks star Kyrie Irving reacted to the sequence of events that led to his ACL injury, according to NBA fans.

Kyrie Irving broke his silence with a story on Instagram where he challenged the narrative that his minutes played a role in the injury.

Unfortunately, Irving lost his balance and landed awkwardly. After hitting his free throws, the former Duke point guard left the game, never to return. Turns out, Irving suffered a torn ACL, ending his year and putting his 2025-26 season at risk.

The Dallas Mavericks will be without Kyrie Irving for the rest of the season, as the star guard tore his left ACL against the Sacramento Kings on Monday, the team announced a day later. Irving, 32 will finish the season having played in 50 games, with averages of 24.7 points (on 59.4% true shooting), 4.8 rebounds and 4.6 assists.

With many players on the injury report for Monday’s game, one could argue Kyrie Irving is the most devastating. Earlier this month, Irving tore his ACL, which not only sidelined him for Monday’s game but the remainder of the season.
