Kyrie Irving has asked for a trade: How it affects the Rockets

Cleveland Cavaliers superstar Kyrie Irving has asked the Cleveland Cavaliers to trade him, according to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst.

Kyrie would like to be the focal point of his own team instead of playing second fiddle to LeBron James.

This news sent shock waves throughout the league and set NBA Twitter on fire.

LeBron James was reportedly “blindsided and disappointed” by Kyrie’s request, according to Windhorst.

Could this affect the Rockets?

Keep in mind that Kyrie Irving does not have a no-trade clause in his contract.
