Irving talks about comeback: Stable and steady, just for the return of the peak

On July 6, Mavericks core star Irving faced the focus of fans' attention in the live broadcast - whether he can return before the playoffs. His response showed a cautious consideration and firm attitude towards his own state.

Irving honestly said: "Don't have too much expectations for this. This is not that I will not return, but I don't want to predict the time of return. I just want to return to the arena at 200% perfect state. So at the moment, I choose to advance steadily and devote myself to my physical recovery." He further shared that he is meticulously adjusting the various functions of his body, trying to find the rhythm in this difficult process, and enjoy the sense of accomplishment brought by every little progress. Irving sighed that the road to recovery is not a smooth road. Every day, it seems like I am riding a psychological roller coaster, and my emotions are fluctuating, but what supports him to persevere is always a strong desire for the arena.

Reviewed last season, Irving played 50 games for the Mavericks, and averaged 36.1 minutes of playing time, with a full firepower, averaged 24.7 points, plus 4.8 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.5 blocks, shooting percentage of 47.3%, shooting percentage of three-pointers as high as 40.1%, and shooting percentage of free throws was stable at 91.6%. Such dazzling data undoubtedly demonstrates his dominance in the field. However, the injury of the torn ACL in his left knee ruthlessly interrupted his journey, forcing him to say goodbye to last season in advance.

Irving's statement during the live broadcast not only reflects his high responsibility for his career, but also allows fans to see his cautiousness in returning to the field. He knew that only returning at his best would really help the team stand out in the competitive NBA. Although fans are eager to see him return soon, they can understand his choice. After all, the healthy and powerful Irving is the strong guarantee for the Mavericks to strive for the championship. I believe that with his persistence and efforts, he will return to the arena with a stronger attitude and continue his basketball legend.
