Fans Found Proof That The NBA Purposely Removed Kyrie Irving From NBA 75 List
Kyrie Irving’s vaccination status continues to be one of the biggest storylines this season. The controversial Brooklyn Nets star chooses not to get vaccinated and now has to live with the consequences of that choice.
Irving is ineligible to play home games due to New York City’s vaccine mandate. On top of that, per NBA’s mandate, Irving will not be paid for any games that he misses as a result of refusing to take the COVID-19 vaccine.
The Nets then even explained that they’ll sit Irving in all the other games as well. Additionally Kyrie won’t practice with the team until he’s eligible to play in every game.
Just like Kyrie, his fans also seem to enjoy a good conspiracy theory. Many of them now believe that Kyrie’s openly communicated decision to not get vaccinated is the reason he was left out of the NBA’s 75 Team, and according to them, there appears to be proof.

HUGE CONSPIRACY THEORY: If you Google ‘Nets NBA 75’ the first result is a page from the Nets website with a link to a video. The page doesn’t work.
