Let me slip this engagement ring on |
Danny Ainge on #Celtics relationship with Kyrie Irving: "I think it's more like an engagement and we're gonna get married on July 1 ... We're still engaged, but really can't make those vows, sign that contract til July 1 ... We have to wait, we still have a date." @Toucherandrich— Adam Kaufman (@AdamMKaufman) February 8, 2019
Danny Ainge told us that he spoke to Kyrie Irving after his "Ask me on July 1st" comments and feels more confident in Kyrie's future with the Celtics than Kyrie's comments may have indicated. #Celtics— Toucher and Rich (@Toucherandrich) February 8, 2019

Danny Aineg was on Toucher and Rich this morning and sounded pretty confident that Kyrie Irving will be re-signing with the Celtics in July. Kyrie might have not given fans the reassurances they needed last week in his interview, but according to Ainge in subsequent conversations, Danny was left pretty confident.
