After missing a game immediately after Kobe Bryant’s death, Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/kyrie-irving/] turned up for the fixture against Detroit Pistons on Thursday. As the Nets began a special tribute the late NBA legend, Irving, who is known to be a good friend of Bryant was in tears. KYRIE IRVING “HEARTBROKEN” WITH THE LOSS OF KOBE BRYANT At the end of the game, Irving had more to add about his friend’s tragic death. The Nets won the game 125-115, with Irving finishing with 20 points, five assits and five rebounds. “It is just hard to even drop the words. Trying to find a clear cut message that you would send to Gigi, Kobe and everybody who lost their lives in a tragedy like that is hard,” Irving said after the match. “I have been trying to do this for the last few days, trying to get ready for a moment like this. But I just got to let it be, let it flow. “I know he’s now watching us, as well as Gigi, as well as the young ball players who were on the plane as well. I was just with them at the Mamba academy working out with them in the summertime. “It is heartbreaking for all of us. I am not the only one dealing with something. I think the most beautiful thing is that it’s connecting all of us.” “The seeds he has planted in all of us continue to grow. His legacy will live on forever. The man was a philosopher, a teacher. He left so many things here for us to follow. I am just going to continue to carry the torch.”

The Brooklyn Nets are a team based out of New York City that competes in the Atlantic Division as a part of the NBA?s Eastern Conference. Former NBA player Sean Marks currently serves as the general manager of the franchise, while former MSG executive John Abbamondi is the team?s <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/07/22/nets-hire-john-abbamondi-to-take-over-as-team-president/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">president</a>.?

The Brooklyn Nets are one of the two NBA teams from New York City, with the other being Knicks. However, both teams enjoy a different venue as the Nets play their home games at the Barclays Center, a multi-purpose arena that also hosts NHL and WNBA games.?

Business tycoon and philanthropist Joseph Tsai owns a majority share of the Nets franchise. The Taiwanese-Hong Kong-Canadian billionaire is also the co-founder and executive vice-chairman of Alibaba Group.?

The Nets pulled off a stunning move in 2020 by hiring Hall of Famer Steve Nash as their head coach. Nash replaced his predecessor Kenny Atkinson, who was fired after four years at the job, displaying a record of 118-190 (36.3%).??
<h2 style="text-align: center">History</h2>
The Nets came into existence in 1967, as a part of the American Basketball Association (ABA). During their initial season in the ABA, the Nets were known as the New Jersey Americans, but immediately relocated and changed their name as the New York Nets in 1968.?

Within a span of few years, the NBA and ABA merger happened, and the Nets were one among the four teams that were absorbed by the NBA with the other three being the San Antonio Spurs, Indiana Pacers, and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/denver-nuggets/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Denver Nuggets</a>.?

However, before the merger, the Nets managed to win the ABA championship in 1974 and 1976. Moreover, the franchise returned to New Jersey in 1977 and stayed there until 2012.?

The team hardly found success in the league after being absorbed by the NBA. With meager first-round playoff exits in the 80s, the team lost its shine. The same followed in the 90s as well, as the Nets only managed to make four postseason appearances in ten years.?

The subsequent decade began in grand fashion, as the Nets made back-to-back NBA finals in 2003 and 2003. Powered by the likes of Jason Kidd and defensive stopper Dikembe Mutombo, the Nets showed plenty of promise but ended up losing both finals.?

In 2012, they were once again renamed as the Brooklyn Nets after they began hosting home games at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Brooklyn Nets mascot and logo</h2>
Ever since moving to Brooklyn in 2012, the Nets have had a simple logo. The word ?Nets? is written in a bold font and contains a white basketball below, with a big black ?B? written on it. It is surrounded by a shield-like design and the <a href="https://www.sportslogos.net/logos/view/hsuff5m3dgiv20kovde422r1f/Brooklyn_Nets/2013/Primary_Logo" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">logo</a> is finished with ?Brooklyn? written beneath.?

The Brooklyn Nets are one among the four teams that don?t have an official mascot. The franchise did have attractive mascots in the <a href="http://sportmascots.com/nba/brooklyn-nets-mascots/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">past</a>, namely, the ?BrooklyNight? and ?Sly the Silver Fox,? but unfortunately, all of them have now retired.?

Furthermore, the primary colors of the Brooklyn Nets uniforms are black, white, and dark gray. The Nets also announced exciting news for its fans, as the team wore a <a href="https://www.nba.com/article/2020/10/14/brooklyn-nets-unveil-classic-edition-uniforms" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">classic</a> 1990-91 throwback uniform in the 2020-21 season.?
<h2 style="text-align: center">Team Sponsors</h2>
The Brooklyn Nets have partnership ties with a plethora of companies. Most recently, they struck a massive deal with New York-based brokerage platform Webull for a jersey patch sponsorship. The deal is reportedly worth $30 million per year. Besides Webull, the Nets have <a href="https://www.nba.com/nets/corporate-partners" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">corporate</a> ties with Red Bull, Barclays, Qatar Airways, and several other companies.

Kobe Bryant: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, wife and more

<h2>Kyrie Irving: Net worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h2>
Kyrie Andrew Irving or Kyrie Irving is a basketball point guard, who currently plays for the Brooklyn Nets in the National Basketball Association (<a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/">NBA</a>).

He was born on March 23, 1992, in Melbourne, Australia. Kyrie?s father, Drederick Irving, was a college basketball player. He lost his mother Elizabeth Irving when he was four. In 2019, it was reported that Irving was engaged to his girlfriend Marlene Wilkerson.

Mandatory Credit: Trevor Ruszkowski-USA TODAY Sports[/caption]

Irving played college basketball for the Duke Blue Devils before being drafted with the first overall pick by the Cavaliers in 2011. After playing six seasons and winning a championship alongside LeBron James, Irving moved to Boston Celtics where he played for two seasons.

After becoming a free agent in the 2019-20 off-season, Irving signed with Brooklyn Nets and formed a formidable duo along with superstar forward Kevin Durant.

Kyrie plays at the point guard position. He is currently using jersey no. 11, although he started with no. 2 at Cleveland.
<h2>Kyrie Irving and Brooklyn Nets</h2>
In July 2019, the Nets signed Irving in free agency. On his debut, he scored 50 points against the Minnesota Timberwolves. But he played just 20 games for the Nets in his first season owing to a shoulder injury. In the 2021-22 season, he missed the first half of the season due to his insistence on not getting vaccinated against Covid-19.

He eventually started playing in the away games in cities which didn't have a vaccine mandate. After New York City also lifted its vaccine requirements, Irving made his season debut at the Barclays Center. However, the Nets were swept in the First Round of the Playoffs by his former employers, Boston Celtics.

There were many reports of Irving wanting out of Brooklyn by declining his player option for the final year of the contract. However, Irving opted into the contract, returning to the Nets for the 2022-23 season.
<h2>Kyrie Irving stats</h2>
After 611 games in his NBA career, <a href="https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/i/irvinky01.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Kyrie Irving</a> has averaged 23.1 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 5.7 assists per game. In the 2021-22 season, he averaged 27.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 5.8 assists per game in 29 games.

The Playoffs proved to be a major disappointment for Irving as he averaged 21.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 5.3 assists in the series sweep.

He is currently using jersey no. 11, although he started with no. 2 at Cleveland. Kyrie Irving and Brooklyn Nets In July 2019, the Nets signed Irving in free agency. On his debut, he scored 50 points against the Minnesota Timberwolves. But he played just 20 games for the Nets in his first season owing to a shoulder injury. In the 2021-22 season, he missed the first half of the season due to his insistence on not getting vaccinated against Covid-19. He eventually started playing in the away games in cities which didn&#8217;t have a vaccine mandate. After New York City also lifted its vaccine requirements, Irving made his season debut at the Barclays Center. However, the Nets were swept in the First Round of the Playoffs by his former employers, Boston Celtics. There were many reports of Irving wanting out of Brooklyn by declining his player option for the final year of the contract. However, Irving opted into the contract, returning to the Nets for the 2022-23 season.
