Kyrie Irving revealed he plans to re-sign with the Brooklyn Nets in free agency.
Irving and Kevin Durant signed with the Nets during the 2019 offseason. Brooklyn has since won one playoff series as they were eliminated in the first round on Monday by the Boston Celtics in a four-game sweep.
Irving also referenced Brooklyn owner Joe Tsai and general manager Sean Marks when asked about his future plans with the Nets.
"When I say I'm here with Kev, I think that really entails us managing this franchise together alongside Joe and Sean," said Irving.
"I've been recognized for my greatness, but at this point I really just want to be part of a great team."
Irving's next contract is one of the more interesting questions heading into the offseason based on his varying availability over his career.
"In terms of my extension, man, I don't really plan on going anywhere," said Irving. "So this is just added motivation for our franchise to be at the top of the league for the next few years."
