Atkinson said Tuesday that it was not a specific play or practice that caused Irving to be in pain again, but rather something he’s been dealing with continuously. “The shoulder is a tough thing,” Atkinson said. “I just think it was an on and off thing where it’s bothering you. Some days you feel good, some days you don’t feel good. But I think it got to the point it was, ‘Hey let’s see another specialist.'”

Alex Schiffer: Atkinson says it’s a different shoulder specialist than the one he saw in Phoenix. Irving missed 26 games with a right shoulder impingement. Atkinson says the shoulder is his issue and not the knee sprain he suffered Feb. 1 in Washington.
