Mercurial point guard Kyrie Irving has satisfied the Brooklyn Nets’ personal conduct counseling and will return to the lineup Sunday night. The seven-time All-Star hasn’t played since November 1 after tweeting a link to a video with anti-semitic messaging.
As noted by Chris Haynes, Irving was required to complete team-directed training, including having conversations with Jewish community members, before he would be re-instated to the team.
Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving has officially completed all prerequisites — which included having conversations with several members of the Jewish community — and is cleared to make his return tonight against Memphis Grizzlies, league sources tell @NBAonTNT, @BleacherReport.
