Kyrie Irving took everyone by surprise when news broke that the Cleveland Cavaliers point guard requested a trade in a recent team meeting.
Despite not having a no-trade clause in his contract, the four-time NBA All-Star and one-time NBA All-Star MVP reportedly gave the Cavsβ front office staff a list of four teams he would prefer to get traded to.
Since the Cavaliers have been one of the most powerful teams over the past few seasons, players couldnβt believe that Irving wanted out of Cleveland. However, the best tweet of the day came from Boston Celtics forward Marcus Morris.
Morris had some fun with the announcement and the fans got a kick out of his tweet.
No one knows where Irving is going to end up, but itβll be interesting to see if the Cavs will actually send him to one of his preferred destinations.
