🌏 Irving is ready to play for Australia at the next Olympics

He told The Athletic publication.

💬 “I was born in Australia and I would love to play for the national team. I don't think the chances are great at the moment. It all depends on the Olympic Committee's decision.”

Kyrie has dual citizenship, but he will only be able to play for the Boomers after permission from the U.S. national team and FIBA.

❌ Why is Irving bringing this conversation up now? Turns out, he wasn't even invited to the U.S. camp before this past Games in Paris.

💬 “I've been playing for the U.S. national team since I was 17 years old. Won three gold medals. I wouldn't say it was frustrating not getting a chance, but it was weird,” shared Kyrie.
