“I’m not going to lie, it’s relatively hard to see everything that is happening in the world from the sidelines,” Irving said. “I know everyone feels it, so I pray that everyone is healthy at this time. But if I get the chance to get on the court and play with some of my teammates, I’m grateful for that opportunity, even if it’s on the way to playing abroad.”

Brooklyn recently sidelined 10 players due to health and safety protocols, and three of its games have been postponed. In this context, the organization decided that part-time All-Star could be used.
“I understood their (initial) decision and I respected it,” Irving said. “I really had to sit down and think. I have to try not to be emotional about what they decide to do. I just have to sit down and evaluate things and look at their perspective, that is, the organization and my team.”

“I don’t want to say too much about myself or what was going on when I was away,” he said. “I’m only focused on putting the best legs forward for the team and being available.”

He said the Nets had “very high IQs” and that “my job was to make the game as easy as filling in the point card, the shooting guard, 15 minutes, 20 minutes off the bench.” He said the team would “need a little patience” to adapt to the “new situation”.
