And now, the former Celtics star has posted something on social media which has left fans absolutely baffled. What’s going on?

The Brooklyn Nets were all set to romp to a successful campaign soon. With the in-form trio of Durant, Irving and Harden, the team never looked stronger.

If the move goes through, the team will be left with a huge void to fill. Kyrie has not made things easier for them, and things are beginning to get very ugly.
