?Man of the People?: Following His Mavs Debut, Kyrie Irving?s New ?Wholesome? Video Warm Fans? Hearts

NBA star Kyrie Irving finally made his debut with the Dallas Mavericks on February 8 at Crypto.com Arena. The new ‘recruit’ led the Mavs to victory over the Los Angeles Clippers by 110-104. It’s been less than a week since Irving was traded to the Mavs and the NBA guard is already winning the hearts of Dallas fans. However, it’s not just his on-court tactics that are impressing fans but his off-court actions as well. Months after facing severe backlash due to his antisemitic comments, Irving is now feeling all the love following his trade to the Mavericks.

Days after Kyrie Irving dropped the ‘trade request’ bomb on the NBA world, the Brooklyn Nets traded him to the Dallas Mavericks. The Nets acquired Spencer Dinwiddie and Dorian Finney-Smith and three draft picks in exchange for Irving and Markieff Morris.

Mavs fans spot Kyrie on LA streets

After defeating the Los Angeles Clippers in their home court, Kyrie Irving decided to take a walk on the streets of LA and met several fans in the process. The 8x NBA All-Star was seen giving autographs and posing for pictures while maintaining his stride. In the video uploaded by Swish Cultures, Irving was seen wearing a white shirt paired with a mustard yellow suit set and a bucket hat. The Mavs point guard looked visibly happy in the short clip and this did not go unnoticed by Twitterati.

NBA fans expressed their satisfaction with Irving’s trade and one user even compared the situation to that of a Superman scene from the movie ‘Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice’.
