In a podcast with The Athletic’s Shams Charania, Spencer Dinwiddie says his first indication that Kyrie Irving might be in play came last December when in a conversation Irving told him, “New York is gonna be fun this time next year.”
Dinwiddie, who has been credited with helping the Nets recruit Irving, said the two friends “loosely” talked about free agency in December.
“The first time he reached out was maybe like December in terms of just loosely talking about it,” he told Charania.
