The Brooklyn Nets are hoping to find a deal to trade wantaway superstar Kyrie Irving after the superstar demanded a move.
The NBA trade deadline will close on Thursday, meaning he will be forced to remain with the team until the summer if no deal is agreed. Irving's demand to be traded, which came on Friday night, seemed to have come out of nowhere considering reports suggested that Irving would be happy to remain with Nets and was in talks to sign a long-term extension.
But once those talks begun, Irving reportedly was unhappy with a stipulation in the contract, something that The Athletic's Shams Charania said he was 'vehemently against', and swiftly rejected the offer before demanding a trade.
