“Kyrie Irving isn’t a Mav yet?”: NBA Insider’s Shocking Claim Suggests Blockbuster Trade Still Not Final, Leaves Fans Confused

The Kyrie Irving to Dallas Mavericks trade shocked the entire NBA community. The nature of the deal and the unlikeliness of Mavs being frontrunners in the trade before made the recent announcement quite surprising, However, it seems the drama is still not over.

Adrian Wojnarowski, in his latest update, is now claiming that the trade is, in fact, still not finalized. Wojnarowski, who is an NBA Insider for ESPN, tweeted emerging details about the trade. He claimed that the Nets have still not made it official and are looking to involve a third team to finalize the transaction.

Wojnarowski: “ESPN Sources: Nets-Mavs trade still hasn’t been made official with league office because Nets are evaluating opportunities to expand deal w/ a third team. Teams are expected to make two-way deal official in next couple of hours – unless Nets find something bigger to fold into it.

Fans are confused by the emerging information about Kyrie Irving being traded to Dallas

Woj’s tweet doesn’t necessarily mean Irving is not going to Dallas. It likely means that there are a few more options and players involved. The Brooklyn Nets clearly have a few more aces up their sleeves and they have been waiting until the final moment to pull them out.

As per Woj, even the current information is not certain. It is highly likely that the Nets may wait even further to find a better deal on the cards.

All this drama, however, has left the fans confused and speculating. They took to Twitter to share their reactions and predict the possibilities.

Irving is definitely a Mavericks player

This update by Wojnarowski does not affect Kyrie going to Dallas. Instead, it means that the Nets are trying to find good role players to surround Kevin Durant with.

The absence of Kyrie Irving leaves a gaping hole in their roster. A hole that would be awfully hard for Spencer Dinwiddie to fill. Perhaps this is why Sean Marks is reluctant to make it official until he can be satisfied with the roster.
