After retweeting a video of Israel United in Christ members lined up outside of Barclays Arena, Celtics guard Jaylen Brown said Monday that he does not endorse the group.
Israel United in Christ has been labeled a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
The crowd gathered outside of the Brooklyn arena on Sunday night ahead of Kyrie Irving’s first game back from a lengthy suspension over a link to an antisemitic movie shared to Irving’s Twitter account.
“My instincts when I first saw that video comes from a community torn every day by the systemic representation of images of violence in our community,” Brown said.
