Could Kyrie Irving become a Dallas Maverick? As improbable as that may have seemed before this offseason, the Nets star guard may be available for Dallas....
It’s worth noting that if the Mavs were interested in orchestrating a sign and trade with the Nets to land Irving, they would need to clear enough cap space to fit him on the roster. All the other teams listed would need to do the same.
With the Mavs’ main focus this offseason being to retain guard Jalen Brunson after a standout second year as Luka Doncic’s backcourt running mate, owner Mark Cuban acknowledged the team would be in “Irving must decide on a $36.9 million player option by June 29th. Should he opt in with the Nets and then get traded, a $5.5 million trade kicker, paid by Brooklyn, would be added. Should he opt out, he hits free agency July 1 with a potential max salary of $42.7 million.
Irving missed the first 35 games of last season. A local ordinance prevented him from playing home games for much of last season because he did not receive a COVID-19 vaccination. He ultimately appeared in just 29 of 82 games last year, but averaged 27.4 points, 5.8 assists and 3.3 rebounds in his limited time on the floor.
