The Brooklyn Nets have made their stance clear when it comes to the Kyrie Irving situation. If the NBA superstar is not going to be a full-time player, he will not be a part of the team.
Irving has remained steadfast in not receiving the COVID-19 vaccination. As a result of that, he is ineligible to play in games at Barclays Center and Madison Square Garden.
Not interested in having a part-time player, the Nets decided Irving would not be with the team until he is eligible for every game the team plays.
With Irving sidelined, people have wondered whether or not the Nets would entertain the idea of trading him. Earlier in the offseason that seemed far-fetched, but now, it sounds as if Brooklyn is at least open to listening to offers for their mercurial point guard.
