Suspended Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving has met with team, league and union officials on "several occasions" in recent days and there's optimism for a resolution "very soon," the National Basketball Players Association told its membership Friday in an email obtained by ESPN.
Nets owner Joe Tsai and his wife Clara on Wednesday met with Irving, who was suspended for a minimum of five games for his initial failure to condemn and apologize for antisemitic material shared to his social media.
"It's clear to me that Kyrie does not have any beliefs of hate toward Jewish people or any group," Tsai posted to Twitter on Friday.
