Kyrie Irving Weighs in on Stephen Curry's Moon Landing Comments, Calls Reactions 'Unfair'

Known celestial conspiracy theorist and Celtics guard Kyrie Irving had a few thoughts about the media frenzy that followed after Warriors guard Stephen Curry said he didn't believe astronauts landed on the moon.

Irving, who experienced a similar fallout after he stated in February 2017 that he believed that the earth was flat, which he eventually apologized for, said that the kinds of reactions he and Curry experienced are "a little unfair at times."

The Celtics' five-time NBA All-Star also called out the outlets who criticized Curry for his comments.

"There's world hunger going on, there are political things going on, there are so many higher things in the totem poll of society that matter to human beings but hey–Steph Curry says that he doesn't believe in the moon [and] it's the thing all over.
