◤NBA◢ Kyrie Irving demanded a trade from Brooklyn Nets due to suspected contractual and personnel issues..
2023-02-04 18:05Shams Charania, the well-known resident NBA reporter of American online media The Athletic, broke the news on Friday that Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving has demanded a trade from the team.
According to reports, Irving has told the Nets that he hopes to be traded before the trade deadline (February 10), otherwise he will choose to leave the team as a free agent in July.
In addition, according to Shams, Irving's decision is suspected to be caused by a falling out with the team due to contractual and personnel issues.
Shams said that the Nets offered Irving a new multi-year contract last week in order to renew his contract in advance, but the contract included a guarantee stipulation clause that he would only be granted his bonus depending if the team won the championship in the final year. However, Irving's agent believes that a world-class star of his level should not have such a stipulation clause in the contract, thus the two parties fell out over this matter.
In addition, Shams also broke the news that Irving has a bad relationship with a executive in the team. The star believes that his philosophy is completely different from what the executive holds, and this matter has also deepened the relationship between himself and the Nets.
Although Irving did not express his list of next clubs which he preferred to join to the Brooklyn Nets, Shams revealed that multiple sources revealed that the Los Angeles Lakers, Phoenix Suns and Dallas Mavericks have all expressed interests in signing Irving.
So far, since this incident came out, fans of many teams have expressed their disapproval of Irving's possibly joining the team they support. Among them, fans of the Boston Celtics, who were betrayed by the point guard in 2018 have even launched a strong wave of opposition on Twitter.
This season is definitely eventful for Irving. At 2:44 noon on October 27 local time, he posted a post on his official Twitter account to promote the online video streaming platform, Amazon Prime's controversial anti-Semitic book and movie, Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America was criticized on many fronts.
Subsequently, Irving was also suspended due to the controversy, and was required by the Nets to complete the list of six action items set by the team before he can return to the team.
The 30-year-old Irving played 40 times for the Nets in the NBA regular season this season, averaging 37 minutes per game, scoring 27.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 0.8 blocks, 1 steal, and a 37.4% percent of three-point shooting.
