Kyrie Irving says he hurt his foot in Game 2 of the Boston series and has been playing on it ever since.

Irving may have aggravated the injury during Friday night’s Game 3 loss to the Chicago Bulls, however, there’s no question that Irving do everything in his power to suit up for Game 4 at the United Center.
“He’s playing his heart out, he’s playing hurt and he’s giving us all he has,” Blatt said. “And I’m proud of him.”
