Kyrie Irving‘s availability for the 2021-22 season is the biggest question mark floating around the Brooklyn Nets and the NBA at large right now. Rolling Stone’s recent piece on anti-vaxxers in the NBA was centered around Irving.
To be clear, the NBA is not requiring all of its players to be vaccinated, but they will follow local guidelines when it comes to the COVID-19 vaccination. New York, San Francisco, and Toronto currently require vaccinations for indoor entertainment. Irving won’t be able to play in home games if he refuses the COVID-19 vaccination.
