The league has reportedly officially announced the Nets' schedule changes for the 2021-22 season, and some of the Nets' postponed games have undergone the following changes due to the impact of the new coronavirus pandemic:
The Nets' game schedules for 5 games have changed, and of course this will not have a particularly big impact on the Nets as a whole, after all, the Nets are still one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference.
On the other hand, according to the US media Shams-Charania, Irving will also return in the Nets' away game against the Pacers on January 6, Beijing time:
Due to the refusal to vaccinate, Irving can still only play away games for the Nets, and it is undoubtedly worth looking forward to how much Irving can bring to Durant and Harden after his comeback, and what kind of state Irving can do after a long absence will also be worth paying attention to.
Finally, there is also an update on the Nets' injury situation. Head coach Steve Nash revealed Joe Harris' injury in an interview:
"Steve Nash says Joe Harris may need a few more weeks to recover."
In addition, veteran LaMarcus Aldridge will not play for the Nets in the Game against the Grizzlies on January 4, and Nash expressed hope that Aldridge's foot injury will not become a long-term problem:
For the Nets, the team's recent injury problems will also be alleviated, of course, how much help Irving can bring to the team after his comeback is still the most noteworthy thing.
