“Kyrie stepped over the line,” said Knight. “I would doubt that we would go back, but I don’t know for sure.”
Nike suspended its relationship with Irving earlier this month and canceled his next sneaker release. His contract with Nike is set to end after this season, according to ESPN. Nike executives had previously touted his shoe line as a key part of its basketball offerings.
