Irving left Sunday's game against the Mavericks due to lower back tightness, Dwain Price of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Analysis:

Irving departed in the second half after playing 25 minutes with limited effectiveness. He scored just six points on 2-of-9 shooting (2-2 FT) to go with three assists and two rebounds. Irving should be considered questionable to play Monday against the 76ers, with A.J. Price and Dion Waiters likely to see increased minutes if he sits out.
