Suspended Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving is nearing completion of the process needed for a return to play and could rejoin the team as soon as Sunday’s game against the Memphis Grizzlies.
“Kyrie is continuing his journey of dialogue and education,” NBPA executive director Tamika Tremaglio told ESPN. “He has been grappling with the full weight of the impact of his voice and actions, particularly in the Jewish community. Kyrie rejects Antisemitism in any form, and he’s dedicated to bettering himself and increasing his level of understanding. He plans to continue this journey well into the future to ensure that his words and actions align with his pursuit of truth and knowledge.”
