Brooklyn Nets coach Steve Nash confirmed this Sunday that the organization is already prepared to not have Kyrie Irving for home games in New York, this after his refusal to get vaccinated against COVID-19.
Irving is among the 5% of NBA players who refuse to get vaccinated and his decision appears to be final.

New York’s coronavirus regulations indicate that employees of any organization must have at least one dose of the vaccine to be able to work in enclosed spaces. Irving, not being vaccinated, could miss 41 Nets games, counting the 2 against the New York Knicks.
