Kyrie Irving, the star point guard of the Boston Celtics, was traded to Brooklyn Nets. It caused a lot of speculation about his future on and off the court. When this happens, people tend to stop thinking about their own lives in order to speculate what might happen next.
Kyrie Irving is a basketball player from the United States. He was born in Melbourne, Australia and has been playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers since 2011. On July 4th, 2018, Irving sent a cryptic message that could signal his return to the court for the Brooklyn Nets.
Since the start of the NBA season in October, we haven’t heard much from Kyrie Irving. For all we know, the All-Star point guard has yet to get the COVID-19 vaccination, and there hasn’t been any chatter about Irving returning to the Brooklyn Nets at any time this season.
Until now, that is.
The Athletic reported on Monday that there is now “renewed confidence” for Irving’s return to the floor this season. Brooklyn’s controversial star teased a comeback the following day by sharing a mysterious video on Instagram.
According to reports, the Nets are getting confident about Kyrie Irving’s comeback.

After the Nets stated that Irving would not play this season unless he received a COVID-19 vaccine, Brooklyn fans began to embrace the possibility that their starting point guard had played his final game with the franchise.
Irving has declared on many occasions that he does not want to get the vaccination, even if it means foregoing a year of his career. Irving’s best chance of playing for the Nets this season seemed to be if the franchise agreed to let him play in road games. Irving is now unable to play in New York due to the state’s vaccine requirement, and the Nets determined before the season that he would not be a part-time player.
However, this might change in the near future.
There is “renewed hope” regarding a possible return to the court this season, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic. Irving and Kevin Durant have been interacting more in recent weeks, according to Charania, and there is a “increased level of energy” between the two.
We don’t sure whether this news indicates Irving is now willing to obtain the inoculation or if the club is considering allowing him to participate in away games. Fans of the Nets, on the other hand, will embrace whatever good news they can receive.
Irving uses Instagram to communicate a mysterious message.
Irving decided to have some fun with his fans on Tuesday morning, only 24 hours after Charania’s article was published online.
Irving used Instagram to share a video of himself putting on a pair of basketball shoes. That doesn’t seem to be unusual at first sight. Most likely, the man goes to the gym every day to get some shots in.
However, Irving’s video’s timing is intriguing. Could this be a clue that Charania’s rumor is correct, and Irving will soon be back in a Nets uniform? At least, that’s what Brooklyn supporters hope for.

Irving could have spent the whole season with the Nets if he had merely taken one for the team and been inoculated at some time over the summer. Every other player on Brooklyn’s roster, including Kevin Durant and James Harden, took the shot, but Irving chose to take a stance and end up hurting his team.
The Nets superstar is allegedly taking efforts to return to the court shortly after watching a quarter of the season from his sofa. Brooklyn would love to have Irving back in uniform for a playoff run, even if it means he can only play in road games.
Irving’s long-awaited return to the lineup might be closer than imagined, according to Charania’s report and Irving’s timely video.
