With one week until the start of the NBA regular season, it's unclear when Kyrie Irving will play for the Brooklyn Nets again.
The Nets announced Tuesday morning that Irving will not play or practice with the team until he is eligible to become a full participant under local COVID-19 vaccination requirements.
New York City's COVID-19 vaccine mandate requires a person to have proof of at least one COVID-19 vaccine shot to enter indoor gyms -- including Barclays Center, the home of the Nets, and Madison Square Garden, the home of the Knicks.
