NEW YORK — Nets head coach Steve Nash said “the organization has spoken” to star guard Kyrie Irving after he posted the movie “Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America” on his social media feeds.
The work is widely considered to be anti-Semitic, and Irving has not yet deleted the post from his Twitter account, even after Nets owner Joe Tsai publicly condemned Irving’s actions.
“I don’t have an update other than I know Kyrie made a statement,” Nash said ahead of tipoff against the Pacers on Saturday. “I know the organization made a statement. The organization has spoken to Kyrie about it. Clearly, I think we all represent values of inclusiveness, and equality, and condemn hate speech.
