Winfield: Nets give Kyrie Irving permission to seek sign-and-trade packages

In the latest indication that the Nets and Kyrie Irving’s positions are at the very least hardening, Kristian Winfield reports that the Nets have given Irving’s camp persmission to see sign-and-trade packages.

Irving’s camp has requested and received permission from the Nets to speak with other teams about sign-and-trade packages, according to multiple sources familiar with the situation.

The belief among both league and player circles is that Irving is gone and the Seven-Eleven Era is over before it ever began.

Winfield’s scoop is the second indicator Monday morning that the negotiations are heading toward a resolution which may indeed lead to his departure.
