A group of fans wearing “Fight Antisemitism” shirts sat courtside at Monday’s Nets game in protest of Kyrie Irving following the guard’s recent promotion of an antisemitic film and book on social media.
The group, consisting of two women and six men wearing yarmulkes, sat near the visitors’ bench at Barclays Center for Brooklyn’s contest against the Pacers. At one point, Irving acknowledged the fans with a thumbs-up, though it’s unknown at this time if the 30-year-old directed any remarks toward the group.
