After requesting the Brooklyn Nets trade him prior to the deadline, Kyrie Irving is the biggest name on the NBA trade block. Magic Johnson knows where he wants the guard to land.
Irving also sat out Saturday night’s home game against the Washington Wizards, with Brooklyn saying it was due to right calf soreness. When his image appeared on the Jumbotron, Nets fans were heard booing him due to their frustration with the polarizing guard.
The Lakers are considered the front-runner to land Irving, who won his only NBA title in 2016 with LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers. After missing the playoffs last year, and being in 13th in the West right now, James and the Lakers want to add someone who could push them into the postseason conversation.
When the news broke Friday, James posted to Twitter an eye and crown emoji, which is assumed to be about Irving’s availability.
