There was an incident on the court, which led to both the point guards, Kyrie Irving and Dennis Schroder to be on each other’s throats. The referees tried to stop it and issued a technical each, however, the two did not stop. That ultimately led to both the guards getting ejected. This was the first time either of them had gotten ejected in their career.

He did offer to do a giveaway of the 30-40 pairs of Kyries he owns. Schroder says he has them in all colorways, and he wears a size 12. In case one feels like they want a pair, he asked people to hit him up.

However, with this move, Dennis has shown that he isn’t letting the rivalry slide anytime soon.
