Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving was back on the basketball court Sunday following his suspension over accusations of antisemitism.
The Nets suspended Irving for five games without pay on Nov. 3 after the guard shared a link to a movie on social media containing antisemitic material.
The team said they suspended Irving, who missed a total of eight games, after he repeatedly failed to"unequivocally say he has no antisemitic beliefs," the news outlet reported.
