Last night (Aug 22), the Cleveland Cavaliers and Boston Celtics pulled the trigger on a blockbuster trade that sent Kyrie Irving to Beantown in exchange for Isaiah Thomas, Jae Crowder and more.
It was rumored that there was a rift between the point guard and star player LeBron James which led to the point guard’s exit in a rare late August trade.
A fan posted a video thanking Kyrie for his contributions to the team since being drafted with the first pick in the 2011 draft.
Instead of being petty, James decided to respond with respect to his former teammate.
See the response below.
That’s the only way to be to the kid! Special talent/guy! Nothing but respect and what a ride it was our 3 years together Young Gode #Filayy https://t.co/wKYmYsmdgG
