Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving has parted ways with his longtime agent Jeff Wechsler and is expected to partner with Roc Nation Sports, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
The move comes just weeks ahead of Irving's free agency, where he's already reportedly decided to decline his $21.3-million player option for 2019-20.
Irving is already speculated to have interest in joining the Brooklyn Nets, whose former part-owner - legendary rap artist Jay-Z - is the founder of Roc Nation.
Wechsler played a major part in Irving's career, sticking with the All-Star point guard since he was a rookie and even being listed as an associate producer on Irving's film "Uncle Drew."
