NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said Kyrie Irving “made a reckless decision” by tweeting out a link to a film containing antisemitic material last week, and Silver wants to know specifically why the Brooklyn guard did that.
Silver, in a statement Thursday, also said he wants to know why Irving has not apologized. Silver’s comments were the second statement the league office has issued on the latest Irving controversy, and the first in which Irving was referenced by name.
Irving and the Nets announced Wednesday, in conjunction with the Anti-Defamation League, that each would be donating $500,000 to anti-hate causes. But Irving stopped short of apologizing for the since-deleted tweet, or his comments last week that included him saying “anyone else who has criticism, it obviously wasn’t meant for them.
