They say actions speak louder than words, and Kyrie Irving is certainly showing with his actions that he is done with the Celtics.
The Boston Celtics were hoping to speak to their point guard next week about re-signing with the squad, but it doesn’t look like the feeling is mutual.
Irving has reportedly disappeared on the team and hasn’t spoken with anybody.
Via the Boston Globe:
“The strangest part of the Irving situation right now is that it appears he has essentially ghosted on the Celtics. The people within the organization I have spoken with have made it clear that they have had little, if any, communication with Irving in recent weeks.”
Irving has already declined his $21.3 million option for the 2019-20 season after firing his long-time agent and signing with ROC Nation.
His silence should let the Celtics front office know it is time to move on from him, because he has certainly moved on from them.
