The tests Kyrie Irving will have to pass to play for Nets again

Kyrie Irving will miss a fourth straight game Friday, sidelined by a shoulder impingement.

Irving didn’t practice Thursday and won’t play against the Kings. After getting hurt on Nov. 12 in Utah, he played two days later in Denver. Kenny Atkinson admitted the guard aggravated the injury against the Nuggets, and he hasn’t suited up since.

The Nets have given no timetable for Irving’s return.

“He didn’t practice [Thursday], still getting a ton of treatment,” Atkinson said. “When it happened in Utah, I think the next thing was a big discussion whether he was going to play in Denver.
