NBA: Kyrie Irving and the Nets at an impasse

Kyrie Irving’s future with the Brooklyn Nets looks uncertain.

Shams Charania de The Athletic reports that the playmaker and the team are at an impasse in their talks over the 30-year-old’s future.

Irving has until June 29 to take advantage of the $36.9 million option on his contract for next season.

Last month the New York Daily News argued that the team was reluctant to offer the star player a long-term contract.

Critical of the COVID-19 vaccination, Irving was limited to just 29 games in 2021-22. He averaged 23.1 points, 5.7 assists and 3.8 rebounds per game.

Charania reports that the New York Knicks, Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers could be interested in Irving’s services if he decides to leave the Nets.
