Kyrie Irving Reveals His Purpose on the Dallas Mavericks Amid (Stupid) Mavs Trade Speculation

Kyrie Irving opened Dallas Mavericks training camp by explaining the unfinished business and bigger purpose that keep him with the Mavs, even as NBA trade rumors continue to swirl. Cooper Flagg set the tone on Day 1 of Mavs training camp while Dusty May revealed a major new investment in shooting ahead of the NBA season.

Nick Angstadt breaks down everything Kyrie Irving said at Mavs training camp, including why he is staying in Dallas, how he is mentoring rookie Sergio De Larrea, and why he admits Dallas has been chaotic but still feels like home. Nick also shares what Daniel Gafford said about Cooper Flagg's leadership, what Dwight Powell said about Kyrie's influence, and why Kyrie mentioned his conversations with Mavs Team President Masai Ujiri and Mavs GM Mike Schmitz. Plus, updates on Dereck Lively II and Santi Aldama being limited, Kyrie remembering PJ Washington's tough night at the free-throw line, and Dusty May's thoughts on Garrett Temple.
