From the episode

The data on labrum repair is pretty promising in that most players do see a return to their pre-injury level of production and form.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalInjury

Irving is fully cleared and expected to return to his pre-injury form.

Irving is fully cleared following labrum repair. His late-season 2023 production dip (70% decrease in receptions) is attributed to the shoulder injury. Since labrum repairs typically see a return to pre-injury form and his midfoot sprain was non-operative, Chona is optimistic about his outlook.
