Kyrie Irving

If you’ve been on the internet today, and have a passing interest in basketball, you’re likely aware that Kyrie Irving is seeking sign-and-trade scenarios to get out of Brooklyn.

It appears that the relationship between this player and his front office is irreconcilably damaged. Irving’s frequent non-basketball absences have the front office reaching a breaking point.

Of course, that’s the risk in acquiring Kyrie Irving. That applies to any team, and the Mavericks are no exception. It’s hard not to notice that every team Irving joins seems to combust.

With that said, he is a remarkable talent. In fact, he’d form one of the most dynamic offensive duos in the NBA alongside Doncic. The Mavs could justify rolling the dice on his tremendous abilities, even at the risk of locker room issues.

Personally, we might be hesitant. That’s why Kyrie Irving is third on this list. At the same time, if he did pan out, he’d make a larger impact than any other name you’ll read in this piece.
