Reports earlier suggested that Irving wants to start a new league

During a separate group chat, Irving requested his teammate not to step on the court when the season restarts. He also proposed that the players can start their own league where some NBA stars will not be able to dominate the whole league, according to Stefan Bondy of the New York Daily News.

To be clear on this, Kyrie Irving has proposed to his teammates they should start their own league, and it’s not necessarily in response to the bubble situation. https://t.co/x6pM4Dipc3
