However, Irving has missed plenty of time throughout the 2023-24 campaign, so it's been a constant issue for fantasy managers. Of course, he should be back in all fantasy lineups.

It might also mean fewer offensive chances for Luka Doncic, who's scored at least 40 points in each of his previous two games.
