After being selected with the first overall pick in the 2011 NBA draught by the Cleveland Cavaliers, he was named Rookie of the Year.

He was a seven-time All-Star and three-time All-NBA Team member before winning an NBA championship with the Cavaliers in 2016.

Irving played for the Duke Blue Devils in college before joining the Cavaliers in 2011. He was named the 2014 All-Star Game’s Most Valuable Player (MVP).

Irving was expected to decline his player option and pursue a sign-and-trade deal with another team after the 2021-22 season ended.
However, Irving chose to exercise his $37 million player option and return to the Nets for the 2022-23 NBA season.

Can Kyrie Irving still get traded?
