As of Tuesday night, Kyrie Irving has not responded to the Nets announcement that he’s banned from play and practice unless he is eligible to play in all the team’s games, but it appears that he or his representatives have provided Shams Charania his position.

Multiple sources with direct knowledge of Irving’s decision have told The Athletic that Irving is not anti-vaccine and that his stance is that he is upset that people are losing their jobs due to vaccine mandates.
