Nets star point guard Kyrie Irving however, wasn’t able to help his team in the deciding games, after suffering an ankle injury in game 4.

After yesterday’s loss against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Kyrie Irving commented on the injury he suffered in the playoffs and threw shade at Giannis Antetokounmpo, implying that he left his foot under him on purpose.
