Kyrie Irving: (Knee) Out For Game 2
Irving (knee) will sit out Game 2 against the Hawks and will be questionable for Game 3 on Sunday.
Analysis:
Irving's knee issue appears to be serious in nature, as he'll sit out Game 2 after aggravating it in Game 1. Matthew Dellavedova will likely be the biggest beneficiary of Irving's absence, but J.R. Smith and Iman Shumpert could be candidates for extra minutes as well.
