Under-fire Kanye West has appeared to show his support for NBA star Kyrie Irving, after he recently posted a link to an anti-semitic film on social media.
West posted a picture of the seven-time NBA All-Star in a cryptic message which seems to support Irving, who last week posted an Amazon link to the film ‘Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America’. Rolling Stone reported the 2018 film is littered with ‘anti-semitic tropes’.
The Brooklyn Nets quickly distanced themselves from the actions of their star Irving. However, NBA legend Charles Barkley believed that the league should have got involved and suspended Irving for his actions.
