Cavs Slip to 5-1 Odds to Win 2018 Championship After Kyrie Irving Shocker
Kyrie Irving wants out of Cleveland and this has resulted in the Cavs losing a half point in their odds of sinning the 2018 NBA Championship to 5/1.
Irving's agent, Jeff Wechsler, would not confirm or deny whether the point guard asked for a trade.
"Kyrie and I had a meeting with Cavs leadership where we discussed many different scenarios in reference to Kyrie and his future with the team," Wechsler told Wojnarowski. "The basis of those discussions and what went on in those discussions are between the Cavs and us. We are respectfully going to keep those private."
Sources told ESPN's Chris Haynes that the Cavaliers were disturbed that Irving's request was made public, believing it could affect his trade value.
