Irving (thumb) is available to face the Knicks on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Irving was initially listed as probable for this one, so it's not a surprise to see him being upgraded to available. Irving is coming off a 36-point, five-assist performance in a win over the Nets on Tuesday, and he's been on a tear of late after scoring 20 or more points in all but one of his last 11 appearances.

Irving (thumb) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Irving returned from a six-game absence Monday night and produced 23 points (10-17 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight assists, five rebounds, two steals and one block across 35 minutes. The Mavericks are usually very cautious with Irving, so it's a good sign if they are planning to play him on the second leg of the back-to-back set.

Irving (thumb) recorded 23 points (10-17 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight assists, five rebounds, two steals and one block across 35 minutes during Monday's 118-102 victory over the 76ers.
EDGE Analysis
In his return from a six-game absence due to a sprained right thumb, Irving didn't appear to be operating with any handicaps, as he scored and facilitated efficiently while turning the ball over just once. While ceding more of the ballhandling responsibilities to Luka Doncic, Irving has been able to significantly cut down on mistakes, as his 3.4 assist-to-turnover ratio is a career-best mark.

Irving (thumb) said he'll play in Monday's game against the 76ers, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Irving has missed the past six games for Dallas and was officially listed as probable heading into Monday, but he sounded confident about his ability to play through a sprained right thumb after taking part in morning shootaround. Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd hasn't revealed whether Irving will face a minutes limit in his return, though the fact that the star guard is making his way back from an upper-body injury would suggest that any restrictions he might face would likely have to do more with conditioning than anything. With Irving back in the fold, Josh Green, Maxi Kleber and Tim Hardaway should all be in store for downturns in usage after all three players scored 18 points or more in Saturday's loss to the Bucks.

EDGE Analysis
Irving has missed the last six games due to a right thumb sprain, but it appears likely that he'll return to action in the first half of a back-to-back set Monday. It's unclear whether he'll face any limitations if he's officially given the green light against Philadelphia.
