Recently, Mavericks star Irving answered some questions from netizens during the live broadcast.

When asked by netizens whether I would return before the start of the playoffs next season, Irving said, "Don't hold too much hope, you know what I mean, this does not mean I won't return, just don't expect me to give any clear time. I don't want to make any predictions about when I will return. I just want to be 150% when I return. So now I am taking the time to really recover. I am trying to completely adjust my body and repair other body parts. Some parts, and try to enjoy the recovery process as much as possible. To be honest, this process is not easy at all. Yes, it is a beautiful struggle, but I am experiencing that psychological roller coaster every day. I just really want to go back to the court."

This year, on March 4, the first quarter of the Mavericks' home game against the Kings, Irving sprained his knee in a breakthrough. After the injury, Irving insisted on making two free throws, and then left the court with the help of his teammates and the team doctor. After the game, Irving was diagnosed with a torn anterior cruciate ligament (also known as the anterior cruciate ligament) in his left knee.
