Celtics' Kyrie Irving (shoulder) misses Wednesday's practice
Boston Celtics point guard Kyrie Irving sat out practice with a sore left shoulder on Wednesday.
What It Means:
Irving is being listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers, and we'll have a better idea of his status after shootaround on Thursday. If he can't play, look for Terry Rozier to move into the starting lineup, while Shane Larkin should also see increased minutes.
Assuming he does play, numberFire's models project Irving for 24.2 points, 5.2 assists and 3.6 rebounds in 33.2 minutes of action on Thursday.
