Kyrie Irving set to meet Phoenix Suns and at least two other NBA teams as move nears

NBA star Kyrie Irving has made plans to meet with the Phoenix Suns as soon as the free agency period begins on June 30. The Suns currently have Irving's former teammate and close friend from the Brooklyn Nets, Kevin Durant, on their roster.

However, reaching an agreement between Irving and the Suns could be challenging due to various factors, including the NBA's collective bargaining agreement. Irving is eligible for a 5-year, $272 million (£215m) extension with the Mavericks, making it difficult to finalize a deal with the Suns.

According to Bleacher Report, the Dallas Mavericks, and the Houston Rockets are also two teams heavily interested in signing the 31-year-old.
