This would be the smart thing to do, be patient and focus on the last draft where the Mavs control their own pick until 2031.

Jason Kidd discussed Kyrie Irving's injury recovery situation ahead of the Mavericks' game on Thursday night against the Warriors.

Marc Stein: Mavericks coach Jason Kidd pregame tonight on Kyrie Irving’s comeback from March knee surgery: “At some point there will be a timeline but right now there is no timeline. … He wants to get back, he wants to play. But when you’re coming back from an ACL, it’s a time thing.”

The Dallas Mavericks have discussed making a major decision on Kyrie Irving's injury return amid more Anthony Davis trade rumors and drama.

Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving is nearing a mid-February return following his recovery from a torn ACL suffered last season, a development that could significantly reshape the team’s push for a playoff spot.

Kyrie Irving remains without a timetable for the Dallas Mavericks as he continues to rehab an ACL injury in his left knee. Previous reports have indicated that Irving could be back at some point in March and that he hopes to play this season.

A successful two-team trade could be made within financial rules if the Pistons trade Duncan Robinson, Jaden Ivey, Caris Levert and a minimum contract, for Kyrie Irving, Dwight Powell and Brandon Williams. Whether that's an even trade for both sides isn't the point, but the fact that a trade can be done within the rules is a good start for Detroit.
