Happy Kyrie Day.
After missing two months with a shoulder injury — and admitting he feared season-ending surgery — Kyrie Irving finally made his long-awaited return Sunday. And he made the Nets look like a whole different team.
With the Nets getting both Irving and Caris LeVert — who returned last week — back in the lineup, they looked energized and inspired in a thorough 108-86 thrashing of the Hawks at Barclays Center.
“I missed the game, missed these fans … I’m grateful to be out here, I worked extremely hard to get back,” Irving said in an on-court TV interview.
