Kyrie to have second opinion on lingering knee issues, could miss team's next road trip

Having missed the last three games, Kyrie Irving's absence has definitely been a noticeable one as the Boston Celtics have looked like a shell of their former selves (literally and figuratively) over that time. Ruled out during the stretch due to knee soreness, Irving has been managing pain in his leg almost all season long but now it seems this may potentially be a bigger issue than once thought.

According to 98.5 The Sports Hub's radio host, Tony Massarotti, Uncle Drew will not only be receiving a second opinion on his lingering knee problem but will also likely need screws removed from the knee as well.
