NEW YORK — There is momentum suggesting suspended Nets star Kyrie Irving could make his way back to the court soon — though not soon enough to rejoin the team during their upcoming four-game road trip.
Irving has met with league officials — including NBA commissioner Adam Silver, Nets owner Joe Tsai and the National Basketball Players’ Association — this week, and the players’ union is optimistic for a resolution to Irving’s suspension “very soon,” according to an email sent to its members on Friday.
After meeting with Irving on Thursday, Tsai tweeted he does not believe his star point guard has antisemitic beliefs.
