The Nets' point guard suffered an ankle injury and answering to the reporters he implied that Giannis Antetokounmpo left his foot on purpose under him, causing his injury.

Using air quotes, Irving answered: 'Giannis' foot just happened to be in the way'.

The point guard, who remains unvaccinated, has played only 3 games so far in this season, averaging 17.7 points per game.

The Nets have a current record of 27 wins and 16 losses and superstar Kevin Durant will be out for at least one month with a knee injury.
