Irving’s tenure with the Nets was marred by missed time because of his refusal to be vaccinated for the coronavirus and because he posted a link to an antisemitic film on his social media. In Dallas, he will join the superstar Luka Doncic.

Talented player who can’t get out of his own way. I wouldn’t want him on my team. That is Luka’s team. Mr. Smartest guy in the room will learn that real quick.
