NBA market, Kyrie Irving and the renewal request: the figures

A generic annoyance, a physical problem necessary for Kyrie Irving to be able to stay out of such a delicate moment in his relationship with the Brooklyn Nets, less than 36 hours after he clamored to be traded: a game then won by the New York team thanks to the young Cam Thomas, who takes full advantage of the opportunity given to him and takes the limelight with 44 points – launching a suggestion that will probably remain just that.
