Dallas Mavericks star Kyrie Irving will miss the rest of the NBA season after suffering a torn ACL in his left knee, the team announced on Tuesday.
Irving went down in the team's 122-98 loss to the Sacramento Kings on Monday night as he was driving to the hoop late in the first quarter. His left knee bent awkwardly as he attempted a layup, crashed to the court hard and immediately called for a trainer.

Despite the fall, Irving remained in the game to shoot free throws after drawing the foul, but then was helped off the court without putting much weight on his leg as he went back to the locker room.
