As the Brooklyn Nets lifted their suspension of Kyrie Irving before their game against the Memphis Grizzlies, Black Hebrew Israelites were seen at Barclays Center for a demonstration.
."He didn’t say that the organization was working together to get Kyrie back on the floor. He said that [Kyrie] had more work to do. And our society has more work to do, including Joe Tsai. It’s 2022. It takes 10 minutes of time to see who these business owners, corporations, etc., who they’re associated with and who they’re doing business with, who they’re affiliated with."
"I’m vice president of the union, and it’s part of my job to protect our players legally. And to see [co-founder and chairman of Nike] Phil Knight first come out and condemn Kyrie, and also see Joe Tsai say he has more work to do, I think it’s time for a larger conversation." Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown attempts a free throw against the Oklahoma City Thunder during the first half at TD Garden in Boston, Nov. 14, 2022.
While Irving’s suspension began with posting the link to the film, the Nets decided to suspend him after he had two opportunities with the media to apologize for his comments, which he said on Sunday was a"human" reaction because he felt he wasn’t antisemitic. However, while completing the six-step checklist the Nets required of him before reinstatement, Irving understands now how hurtful his comments were and regrets not apologizing sooner.
