Kyrie Irving, on his serious knee injury: "I am very close to being 100% now"

Kyrie Irving begins to see the light at the end of the tunnel. The Dallas Mavericks' point guard recently stated that his recovery from the anterior cruciate ligament tear is progressing very positively and he is very close to regaining his peak physical condition.

During a Twitch stream, the veteran player shared details about the process he has been following since the injury and expressed optimism about his progress after several months away from the courts.

"I am definitely close to being at 100% in terms of recovering from my anterior cruciate ligament," Irving affirmed during his statement.

The Mavericks' point guard has not played a game since March 2025 when he suffered the serious injury that ended his season. Since then, he has focused all his efforts on the rehabilitation process with the goal of returning in the best possible condition.

Irving explained that this period has allowed him to dedicate time to both physical recovery and understanding his own body, a part he considers fundamental in his return process.

"It's been a while... I am very grateful to have had time to heal and experiment more with my body on and off the court, in the gym, and push myself to the maximum," the player commented.

A Summer Marked by Uncertainties in Dallas

While Irving continues to work on completing his recovery, his name is also linked to possible market movements. In recent weeks, there have been reports that the Mavericks could receive trade offers for the point guard during this offseason.

Nevertheless, the organization is also considering the possibility of keeping the player within the project. The new president of the Mavericks, Masai Ujiri, recently pointed out that he wants to see how Irving would fit alongside Cooper Flagg before making decisions about the team's future.

With his recovery entering the final stretch, Irving's situation looms as one of the most important issues for Dallas in the coming months.
