Kyrie Irving has met with the Brooklyn Nets, NBA and NBPA “on several occasions” in recent days.
The NBPA looks “forward very soon to a resolution of all matters satisfactory to all parties.”
The NBPA maintains that “Kyrie’s rights, and the rights of all future players, have been protected at every turn.”
In the memo to players, the NBPA reiterates that Irving and union “unequivocally condemn antisemitism and all other forms of hate.”
Irving is serving a minimum five-game suspension and there is skepticism he will be in a position to play in Brooklyn’s upcoming games on Sunday at the Los Angeles Lakers and on Tuesday at the Sacramento Kings.
“Clara and I met with Kyrie and his family yesterday,” wrote Joe Tsai on Twitter. “We spent quality time to understand each other and it’s clear to me that Kyrie does not have any beliefs of hate towards Jewish people or any group.
“The Nets and Kyrie, together with the NBA and NBPA, are working constructively toward a process of forgiveness, healing and education.”
