Kyrie Irving starred in a curious moment on Friday night after the Brooklyn Nets took down the New Orleans Pelicans. In a hard-fought match, the Brooklynites beat their rivals 108-102, returning to winning ways after losing the prior game against the Chicago Bulls.
Kyrie had a decent game, posting 19 points, grabbing 5 rebounds, and dishing 5 assists. This game doesn’t sum up how well the player is doing right now, but Kyrie doesn’t pay much attention to that.
After the game was over, many wanted to greet Irving, and he spotted a fan in the stands wearing his jersey and decided to give her the one he wore during the game. Little he knew that somebody would follow him, and as soon as he tossed the jersey, another fan grabbed it.

This was totally unexpected but it happened. Unfortunately, we couldn’t see the rest of the video but it looked like Kyrie tried to clarify that the jersey was for the fan wearing his jersey, not the one who caught it.
Kyrie Irving Explains The Reason Behind His Sweet Moment With Nets
The talented point guard is doing impressive things right now and is helping the Brooklyn Nets post one of the best records in the NBA. Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving have played a big role in that, and the latter recently explained why he’s having such a nice moment on the Nets after a rocky start to the season.
“Basketball is a very simple art form, so if I don’t bring all my extra distractions or anything that I’m going through mentally into the game, then I feel like we have a great chance of winning every game. That’s something I’ve taken responsibility for on my own end, just to positively reinforce that we can win games no matter what’s going on.
“Just being mentally prepared, using a lot of sessions in the summer of challenging myself to be ready for these moments where I don’t have to be swayed emotionally, I’m in control of my emotions, in control of my thoughts.”
The Nets started this season looking like a complete disappointment, but now things have changed for the better. They are ready to compete for that elusive NBA championship, and Kyrie hopes to give his best to reach that goal.
In recent days, he’s been linked with a move to the Los Angeles Lakers next summer, but if he wins a championship with the Nets, that possibility will quickly shut down.
