The Brooklyn Nets have reportedly reached a deal to trade Kyrie Irving to the Dallas Mavericks.
The 30-year-old point guard had requested a trade after failing to agree on a new contract, according to multiple reports.
Irving, selected as an NBA All-Star for an eighth time, has endured a number of off-court issues during his time in Brooklyn.
His decision not to get the Covid-19 vaccine meant he could not play in the Nets’ home games during the 2021-22 season until March because of New York’s ban on unvaccinated people in indoor venues.
He would later say his decision not to get vaccinated cost him a four-year contract worth $100m.
In November, Irving was suspended for eight games and had to apologize after posting a social media link to a film with anti-Semitic material.
