Nets guard Kyrie Irving has re-aggravated his injured right shoulder and is out indefinitely, coach Kenny Atkinson said Tuesday.
Irving was not at practice Tuesday and is going to see a specialist this week, Atkinson said.
The team's coach said he “wouldn’t go there” when asked if there’s a concern Irving will miss the rest of the season. Irving has already missed 26 games as a result of the shoulder injury and received a cortisone shot around two months ago for the injury.
Previously, Irving said he couldn't "really lift my shoulder to get up in that jump shot position" as a result of the injury.
