Kyrie Irving Goes Down With Apparent Knee Injury [UPDATE]

Kyrie Irving was guarding a Russell Westbrook shot, went up late to try to block it, and landed awkwardly after it appeared that his knee collided with Westbrook’s. Irving went down for a couple minutes, and was able to gingerly walk off the court with support on both sides. Hopefully this winds up being better than it looked.

UPDATE: Phew.

Kyrie Irving officially has left knee contusion, will return. Just told me "I'm good"
