NBA commissioner Adam Silver has today issued a statement condemning Kyrie Irving's 'reckless decision' in posting a link to a movie with anti-semitic messages.
Irving caused a Twitter storm earlier in the week after posting a link to a movie last week titled 'Hebrews And Negroes'. The film, written and directed by Ronald Dalton Jr., contains content which many consider to be anti-semitic against the Jewish faith.
The deeply controversial film was released in 2018 and was based on a book of the same name, three years previous, which also contains themes which have been deemed as deeply anti-semitic. When asked by a reporter on why he shared the film, Irving vehemently defended himself, before eventually deleting the tweet.
