Kyrie Irving’s Top Destination if He Leaves Brooklyn Revealed

Sounds like a broken record.

Kyrie Irving decided to opt into his contract for this season, however, it was immediately met with a bombshell from Kevin Durant, who wants out of Brooklyn. Now the Nets are shopping Kyrie, and there seems to be only one team that wants him: the Los Angeles Lakers. According to Jovan Buha of The Athletic, it seems like Kyrie is likely to going to end up on the Lakers. It’s unknown whether or not this will happen this season, however, once Kyrie becomes a free agent, it is very likely he goes to the Lakers.

Via The Athletic: 

“…All indications are that the Lakers are Irving’s top destination if he leaves Brooklyn, whether it’s via a trade between now and the February 2023 trade deadline, or in free agency next summer, when Westbrook’s salary will be off the Lakers…

Considering the lack of current league-wide interest in acquiring him via trade, it seems like the Lakers are his most likely free-agent option next summer, other than the Nets.”
