Irving will not play in Tuesday's preseason game against the Cavaliers for rest purposes, Brian Robb of BostonSportsJournal.com reports.
Irving is not dealing with an injury, as he went through a full practice Monday, so it's nothing more than a night off. Terry Rozier will likely start at point guard in his absence Tuesday.
