OKC Thunder in the news for July 22 continues to focus on Russell Westbrook’s extension and team roster additions..
Prior to jumping into the news, let’s take a moment to discuss the mic drop heard round the Twitterverse. Kyrie Irving shocked the entire NBA with news he’s demanding a trade. Brian Windhorst broke the story and suggests this situation has been bubbling for well over a year.
Irving is said to be keen on joining the Spurs or Bulls (until Butler was traded) with Minnesota and potentially the Knicks a player. The latter may be more a desire of the Mecca than Irvings however.
