Begley: Nets ‘highly unlikely’ to keep D’Angelo Russell if they sign Kyrie Irving

In a story published Friday night, SNY’s Ian Begley reports that if the Nets sign Kyrie Irving, it is “highly unlikely” that D’Angelo Russell will stay with the Nets.

Begley writes...

If Irving signs with the Nets, SNY sources familiar with the matter say it is highly unlikely that Russell remains with the Nets. Members of the Nets organization have communicated that idea in recent days, per sources.

However, league sources tell NetsDaily that the Nets remain “fluid and flexible” and denied that the Nets had communicated with DLo “in any way” regarding the consequences of an Irving signing.
