Kyrie Irving’s shoulder injury seems way worse than expected

ATLANTA — The Nets have been about as transparent as a brick wall when it comes to Kyrie Irving’s shoulder injury. But the star’s absence is approaching three weeks, and multiple sources told The Post he could need a few more — if he’s lucky.

Irving missed his 10th straight game Wednesday with what the Nets termed a shoulder impingement. He also has already been ruled out for Friday night’s game in Charlotte.

But two specialists told The Post that Irving is likely to be out a few more weeks, while another source intimated there’s more under the surface and that this injury could be even more long term.
