News about Kyrie Irving

Luka Doncic feels as though he's 'letting [Kyrie Irving] down,' he said after the Mavs fell 116-111 to the Clippers in Game 4 of the first round. Irving was spectacular in the loss, notching 40 points, seven rebounds and five assists while Doncic managed a 29-10-10 triple-double. However, the MVP finalist was apparently displeased with his performance following the game, which evened the series at 2-2.  

Travis Kelce has astonishingly claimed that 10-15 players in every NFL locker room are flat-earthers - and his brother Jason has backed him up. On his latest New Heights podcast with comedian Andrew Santino, he was discussing conspiracy theories alongside his brother Jason when Kyrie Irving's flat-earth belief came up. 'Conspiracy theories help bring NFL locker rooms together,' Travis told Santino. 'Have you got any good conspiracy theories?'

The latest clash between the New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets welcomed a member of college basketball royalty on Friday night. That's because LSU star Angel Reese sat courtside at Madison Square Garden as she waits to find out where she will be playing in the WNBA next season. It was announced on Friday that Reese and Caitlin Clark will headline a list of 15 college players who have been invited to the WNBA draft on Monday in Brooklyn.

Dallas Mavericks star Kyrie Irving is just one game and one win away from a $1million bonus payment for performance incentives. The 49-30 Mavericks are secure in the playoffs - having already clinched a berth in the postseason. But one more win could mean a big payday for one of the big stars in the team's starting lineup.

The Dallas Mavericks are going above and beyond for star point guard Kyrie Irving as he continues to play for the team while also fasting as part of the Muslim holiday of Ramadan. Participants refrain from eating food and water from dawn to sunset during the holy month, which began on March 10. The exercise is compulsory, with exceptions for those that are elderly, ill, pregnant, or suffer from other disorders. Irving has been doing this for years. However, the Mavericks have taken an extra measure for him this year by flying out a private chef to help prepare vegan meals for the point guard's consumption after he is allowed to break his fast.

After winning his third Super Bowl, the Chiefs QB, who hails from Tyler, Texas, was an hour and a half drive from Dallas, enjoying the offseason. Mahomes sat courtside during the exciting match that went right to the wire in Dallas, wearing a Dallas blue Louis Vuitton shirt.

With a dramatic one-handed floater that NBA writer Kevin O'Connor called "one of the best game winners you'll ever see," Kyrie Irving sank the defending champion Denver Nuggets. On Sunday, the Dallas star scored a running left-handed shot over Nikola Jokic at the buzzer, capping a wild final 26 seconds and giving the Mavericks a 107-105 victory over the Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets recovered from 13 points down midway through the fourth quarter and leapt ahead of Jamal Murray's tiebreaking 3-pointer with 26 seconds remaining.

The Texas Tech defensive back made sure to stand out from other college football players with his words and convictions when speaking to reporters at the NFL Combine on Thursday. When asked what's been discussed that he didn't believe in, the 22-year-old senior said, "I don't believe in space...like, you know, I'm religious, so I suppose we're on our own right now." I don't believe there are, like, other planets, or stuff like that. I'm not sure.

As Dallas defeated Brooklyn 119-107, Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving fired an attack at New York City mayor Eric Adams while torching the Nets for 36 points. Irving shot 15-24 from the field en route to his 36-point masterpiece and gave up five assists during the victory. While inbounding the ball late in the game, Irving heard a fan sitting courtside yell out, 'Kyrie why didn't you play like this when you were on the Nets?Why Kai?'

During a recent game in Salt Lake City, NBA star Kyrie Irving maintains he did not protest about a courtside reading that reads "I'm a Jew and PROUD." The Dallas Mavericks guard, who has also been accused of antisemitism, is denied by a Utah rabbi's comment that Irving's complaint prompted the Jazz to request that the sign be taken away from the Jazz. After winning over the Portland Trail Blazers in Dallas on Wednesday, Irving told reporters, 'I wish him and his family well.' 'No disrespect is going to be shown their way.' 'That is not my MO.' Since Irving complained to safety, a group of rabbis was compelled to remove pro-Jewish signs by the Utah Jazz. On New Year's Day, Rabbi and Jazz fan Avremi Zippel said he and three of his friends watched Utah's game against the Mavericks with the intention of sitting courtside with the signs to send a note to the impoverished All-Star.

On New Year's Day, Rabbi and Jazz fan Avremi Zippel and three of his colleagues attended Utah's game against the Dallas Mavericks with the intention of sitting courtside with the signs to send a note. Irving was banned by the Brooklyn Nets, his former staff's, in November 2022 for posting a link to a film that contains 'anti-Semitic' messages and later refusing to apologize. Zippel, his brother Rabbi Chaim Zippel, their father Rabbi Benny Zippel, and a friend Rabbi Moshe Nigri all landed front row seats for Monday's game, with banners reading: "I'm a Jew and I'm proud."

According to infamous UFC fighter Colby Covington, NFL superstar Travis Kelce is "one of the most important pieces of s***" for promoting Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine, while NBA's Kyrie Irving was wrongly chastised for opposing the jab. Since losing by majority decision to Leon Edwards in UFC 296 on Saturday, the Trump-obsessed 35-year-old mixed martial artist has been doing the media rounds, a loss he has repeatedly criticized for the 45th President of the United States's presumed dislike. In this week's appearance of the PBD podcast episode, Covington fell off his usual list of conservative topics, arguing that he denigrates NBA players who aren't allowed to speak their minds.

On Tuesday night, Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd unleashed an expletive-laden outburst at an ESPN reporter, despite being subpoenaed in his ostensibly dull, monotone delivery. Tim MacMahon, a long-time NBA reporter who has been covering Kidd since his playing days, has requested that reporters have more positive coverage. The 50-year-old Hall of Famer said, 'It's alright to write positive stuff.' 'People will read your positive messages.' You don't have to be negative to be happy. The world is already negative.' MacMahon told Kidd about the Mavs' improved results in late-game scenarios, sparking the back-and-forth. The Mavs have been exceptional in clutch situations this season, as opposed to last year, when newly acquired Kyrie Irving struggled to mesh with star point guard Luka Doncic, resulting in a disappointing 38-44 record.

But the now-Dallas Mavericks point guard spoke out against his former team, the Brooklyn Nets, on Friday, blaming the media's fanning flames to exploit him ahead of his first game against him. Following the Mavericks' practice on Thursday, Irving said, 'I was never on bad terms with the company.' "I just think there was a lot of chaos and commotion from the media.' I'm not going to blame you guys or something, but nobody really knew what was going on behind the scenes. I'm positive that people have their sources. They should [about] what was going on and what really happened.' Irving did not go into detail about what transpired with the Nets. However, the 31-year-old made it clear that he did not regret applying for a job near the trade deadline in February.

Right away, the No.1 pick displayed the same defense as his 7-foot-4 frame did. Kyrie Irving, the Mavericks' point guard, beat Jeremy Sochan and Zach Collins with two dribbles in the first 30 seconds of the game. However, when the eight-time All-Star and 2016 NBA Champion rose for the jump shot, the Rookie immediately used his wingspan and stopped the ball dead as it left Irving's hands.

With its latest strategy, the NBA took steps on Wednesday to ensure that its key players are front and center in more games, particularly nationally televised matchups, with a number of'stars' who are sometimes ineligible to be rested. The league's board of governors has approved a new player participation policy that will go into place this season, which has barred teams from resting two star players in the same game. In any of the previous three seasons, a star player has been either an All-Star or on the All-NBA team. Teams will now have to track their rosters to ensure that no one key player is off the field at any time. There are 50 players who fit into the star category but who are they and why could some of the league's biggest names sometimes be exempt?

Irving, who went on to win the NBA crown and Olympic Gold in the same year, was given the opportunity to represent Team USA as a prodigious 17-year-old but wanted to represent the Boomers instead. However, the powers that be in the Australian setup discouraged him from playing for Australia.

On Monday, Kyrie Irving defended his ex-teammate James Harden as he chastised Sixers president Daryl Morey for his 'dishonesty and lack of transparency' this offseason. Following rumors that the Sixers would keep the wantaway guard, Harden, who opted into his $35.6 million contract option for next season under the impression that the Sixers would honor his trade request, called Morey a 'liar' at a basketball camp. And after ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski published an article in which he referred to Harden as 'disgruntled,' Irving spoke out in support of the Philly celebrity.

Although the world knows a great deal about Kyrie Irving, virtually every household is in lockstep with the genius of his basketball play. Many who observed Uncle Drew in the lab have a greater appreciation for his artistry. The admiration for Irving's abilities has only increased following the revelation of former Cavalier Iman Shumpert's.

Kyrie Irving, a 93-year-old South Carolina woman, has won a $40,000 donation to shield her family's home from an encroaching developer. Bailey Point Investment Group is being sued by Josephine Wright, a long-time resident of Hilton Head Island, for allegedly blocking the developer's progress on a 147-unit complex next to her house, a 1.8-care plot that has been in her family since the Civil War. In 2012, Wright inherited the property from her late husband. According to reports, the developers made bids worth up to $39,000 to purchase Wright's plot, but the developers launched a series of abuses when she refused, including cutting her tires, throwing garbage into her house, and even hanging a snake from her window. In Wright's name, a gofundme page was created, which is how Irving came to give $40,000 to her legal causes. As of Wednesday morning, the campaign had raised $248,263 of its $350,000 target.

Select a celebrity from the world of sport in 2023 and you can almost guarantee they attended the ESPY Awards on Wednesday night. Patrick Mahomes and Kyrie Irving, two men at the top of their art, to the up-and-coming Cavinder Twins and Olivia Dunne, it was sport's time to shine at the annual event at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood. The award ceremony honors 'excellence in sports service,' but it also gives those who are normally covered in sweat on a field or court the opportunity to dress up and display their style - and they did.

In a tweet from earlier this month, Irving, 31, claimed that Nike's own signature line earned $2.6 billion in sales over the past seven years. His new ANTA contract is in place for the next five years. In November, Nike halted his relations with Irving before indefinitely leaving the actor in December after he posted an anti-Semitic video on his social media pages and was reluctant to show sorrow for his behavior when given the opportunity to apologise for the controversy. Irving wore older shoe models that he collaborated on, such as the Kyrie 3s and Kyrie 4s, during games and would publish them with tape or text messages expressing his personal beliefs over the course of the second half of last season.
