Kyrie Irving says he received cortisone shot on Christmas Eve, will be out another two months

The Brooklyn Nets are almost definitely getting a grand total of zero games from Kevin Durant this season. The Nets point guard told reporters Saturday that he received a cortisone shot to his injured shoulder on Dec. 24, and will have his status reassessed two months from then. The reported hope is he can avoid arthroscopic surgery, which would cost him 3-4 months.
