Reports: Kyrie Irving requests trade from Nets before deadline | NBA ... (NBA.com)

The All-Star guard has reportedly informed the team he wants to be dealt before the Feb. 9 trade deadline.

Irving was suspended by the Nets earlier this season after posting a link to a documentary with antisemitic material and vowed upon his return to focus on basketball. The Nets acquired the three-time scoring champion from the Houston Rockets in a January 2021 deal, with the idea that Harden, Kevin Durant and Irving would be too potent to stop. In the 2021-22 campaign, guard James Harden sought a trade from Brooklyn and got one on trade deadline day as he [2023 All-Star Game](https://www.nba.com/allstar/2023/all-star-roster) and is averaging 27.1 points, 5.1 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game this season for the Nets. Irving can leave the franchise this summer as a free agent. Shams Charania of The Athletic reports Irving would prefer to be dealt before the Feb.

On one hand, Irving poses the least amount of risk for a team to take on while he’s on an expiring contract. But would an executive want to add him to the mix if his own team has a good thing going? Irving’s request puts uncertainty around the rest of the Nets’ season, one that appeared good enough to make the second round of the playoffs, if not beyond. The Nets have stuck with Irving throughout all of his headlines in Brooklyn.

Brooklyn Nets all-star guard Kyrie Irving has requested a trade, Shams Charania of The Athletic and Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN report.

Irving also wound up losing his long relationship with Nike as part of the massive fallout from what he tweeted and the reactions that followed.

Simmons is rostered in 81.3% of ESPN leagues, meaning he's available on the free agency wire in about one of every five leagues. But, he has outright dominated the NBA summer league for two straight summers, showing a flare for scoring that should play in the NBA. Thomas is in his second season, and has never gotten the chance to play major rotation minutes at the NBA level. Thomas has averaged 20.0 PPG in 23.5 MPG in his last two outings, has four 15-plus point scoring efforts in his last seven games, and set a career high with 33 points in 29 minutes on Dec.

Will the Nets actually trade Irving this time around? Irving projects as a great on-court fit next to Doncic because he’s an elite ball handler and a great shooter.
