Fantasy Impact:
Irving is recovering from a torn left ACL, a surgery he underwent on March 26. His recovery timeline suggests he could miss the first two to three months of the 2025-26 season, but optimism surrounding a potential January return makes him a possible midseason difference-maker. Redraft fantasy managers may want to stash him in IR spots or monitor his progress, while dynasty and keeper league managers should hold onto him. A healthy Irving could still provide top-tier value in the second half of the season.
