Kyrie Irving (personal, quarantine) expected back for Nets on Saturday
Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (personal, quarantine) is expected to play on Saturday against the Orlando Magic, reports Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.
Irving will be cleared to play if he continues to test negative for COVID-19, following a five-game hiatus due to reasons that remain unclear. James Harden is also expected to make his Nets debut Saturday after being acquired earlier this week.
The addition of Harden could relegate Irving to the third option in Brooklyn's offense. Prior to Irving's hiatus, he recorded a 29.4 usage percentage and averaged 1.3 FanDuel points per minute without Durant on the court.
