Celtics star Jaylen Brown announced on Tuesday night that he has terminated his affiliation with Kanye West’s Donda Sports agency in the wake of the rapper’s recent antisemetic comments.
The announcement came a day after Brown said in an interview with The Boston Globe that he didn’t condone West’s remarks but would stay with his agency. That changed after a day of reflection.
In a statement posted to his social media accounts, Brown wrote: “In the past 24 hours, I’ve been able to reflect and better understand how my previous statements lack clarity in expressing my stance against recent insensitive public remarks and actions. For that, I apologize. And in this, I seek to be as clear as possible. I have always, and will always, continue to stand strongly against any antisemitism, hate speech, misrepresentation, and oppressive rhetoric of any kind.
