Urgent: Kyrie Irving traded to Dallas Mavericks for Dorian Finney-Smith, Spencer Dinwiddie, 2029 first-round pick and second-round pick to Nets, sources say.

At the moment, there is no official information from any of the franchises or individuals involved. Early reports claimed that Irving was in talks with Brooklyn to resume relations, but no agreement was reached and the figure requested a transfer before February 9.

The point guard moved to the Nets from the Boston Celtics in 2019 with Kevin Durant on a $35 million-a-year deal. Irving hasn’t had his best season yet and is averaging around 27 points, five rebounds and five assists per game.

In recent years, he has been involved in various controversies in the NBA due to his refusal to vaccinate against covid-19 or his affinity with anti-Semitic groups, which even cost him the contract he had with Nike.
