Former Boston Celtics star point guard Kyrie Irving can be a complicated player to have on the roster of your team. No news to Celtics fans of course, but he was cut from a different cloth before he ever suited up for Boston, and continues to make waves even while finding some measure of success with his new team, the Brooklyn Nets,
It seems some of the waves he made in his second season with the Celtics’ Atlantic Division rivals has reportedly caused the Nets front office to at least ponder whether moving the mercurial star this offseason is an idea worth exploring. The outspoken floor general evidently irked Brooklyn’s executives with maskless celebrations earlier this season, and GM Sean Marks might at least consider a trade based on what we’re hearing from author Matt Sullivan.
Discussing his new book “Can’t Knock The Hustle” on the latest “Celtics Lab” podcast, the award-winning editor hinted at the sort of revelations his new tome contains.
