The Nets announced in early November that Kyrie Irving would be suspended for "no less than five games" after he publicized "a film containing deeply disturbing antisemitic hate" and didn't apologize for it.

Irving has since missed six games, and it's still unclear when he will return.

The Nets have fared well without the seven-time All-Star. After starting the season with a 2-6 record, they've won four of their last six games, including a 42-point win over the Wizards and a 15-point win over the Clippers.

Will Irving return for Tuesday's game against the Kings? Here is everything you need to know about the matchup, including TV and streaming options for the game.

Is Kyrie Irving playing vs. Kings tonight?

According to ESPN's Nick Friedell, Irving remains out and will not play against the Kings.

Nets head coach Jacque Vaughn said following Brooklyn's loss to Los Angeles over the weekend that he has "no update on timetables at all" for Irving. 

Tuesday's matchup with the Kings marks the third of four straight road games for the Nets. They will travel to Portland to face the Trail Blazers on Thursday before returning to Brooklyn for a meeting with the Grizzlies on Sunday.

Irving is averaging 26.9 points, 5.1 rebounds and 5.1 assists while shooting 45.3 percent from the field through eight games this season.
