MIAMI — Kyrie Irving said he hasn’t forgotten his unvaxxed brethren.
Granted special exemption from vaccine rules and set to make his Brooklyn season debut Sunday, Irving advocated for the broader removal of mandates.
“I’ve been saying from the beginning with all this, it’s never been just about me, and any special privilege or exemption,” the Nets point guard said. “I think there are a lot of people dealing with real consequences from being unvaccinated. And I don’t think it’s talked about enough in terms of our essential workers and people on the frontlines, and it’s just it’s a whole community of us that really want to stand together.
