Because he refuses to comply with their mask mandate, former Utah Jazz guard John Stockton is no longer allowed to attend basketball games at his alma mater Gonzaga University.
When asked to explain why he does not wear a mask at Gonzaga games even though he was asked to do so, the 59-year-old claimed to The Spokesman-Review that “over 100” pro athletes have died from the vaccine. However, there is no evidence supporting this assertion.
Stockton made headlines in June 2021 when he appeared in a clip that was promoting vaccine conspiracies in COVID and the Vaccine: Truth, Lies and Misconceptions Revealed. Then in Dec. 2021, he spoke in favor of Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving’s decision to not get vaccinated.
