Spencer Dinwiddie faces new Nets challenge as Kyrie Irving looms
The Nets’ franchise-changing star hasn’t been needed for more than two weeks. The guard expected to bring Brooklyn to the next level has watched his teammates take off without him.
Kyrie Irving has been sidelined with a shoulder injury for eight games. The Nets are 6-2 without the six-time All-Star. They went 4-7 with him leading the team in scoring (28.5) and assists (7.2).
If Irving’s return isn’t imminent, it is looming. When it comes, change is inevitable.
But the success without Irving hasn’t changed how current star Spencer Dinwiddie looks at his role alongside the former first-overall pick.
