It is reportedly just a “leg bruise” that Irving sustained from bumping into a player in the team’s last exhibition game.
Paul George is also resting with an ankle injury. Neither are considered serious. Team USA’s first Olympic game is Saturday night against China and Monday night is a good chance to give players rest before they head to Rio.
