WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 (Xinhua) -- Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving has been ruled out with right shoulder soreness for Monday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans, the team announced.
In addition to Irving, Aron Baynes and Guerschon Yabusele are also out for the game due to ankle sprain. And they could be joined by starters Al Horford (left knee soreness) and Gordon Hayward (illness) who are both listed as doubtful for the matchup with New Orleans.
Irving tweaked his right shoulder near the end of the Celtics' win over the New York Knicks last Thursday.
