MADRID, 7 Feb. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The American point guard Kyrie Irving is now officially a new player for the Dallas Mavericks, a franchise that announced his arrival on Monday after the player’s request to the Brooklyn Nets to be transferred after failing to reach an agreement to sign a new contract.
In this way, the ‘Mavs’ are reinforced with one of the best game directors in the NBA, winner of the ring with the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2015-2016, double Olympic champion with the United States and eight times ‘All Star’, who will form an apparently explosive couple with the Slovenian Luka Doncic. So far this season, the 30-year-old Irving is averaging 27.1 points, 5.3 assists and 5.1 rebounds.
The ‘Mavs’ also took over Markieff Morris in this transfer, where, in exchange, they sent Spencer Dinwiddie and Dorian Finney-Smith to Brooklyn and their selections from the first round of the 2029 ‘draft’ and the second from 2027 and 2029.
In addition, according to the Texan franchise’s website, Kyrie Irving will also be a free agent at the end of this 2022-2023 season, as long as the Dallas Mavericks do not agree to a two-year extension with the point guard.
