Kyrie Irving’s non-apology wasn’t good enough for Adam Silver.
The NBA commissioner, who is Jewish, released a statement Thursday morning blasting Irving and saying he will be meeting with the Nets point guard next week to discuss the situation in-person.
“Kyrie Irving made a reckless decision to post a link to a film containing deeply offensive antisemitic material,” Silver said. “While we appreciate the fact that he agreed to work with the Brooklyn Nets and the Anti-Defamation league to combat antisemitism and other forms of discrimination, I am disappointed that he has not offered an unqualified apology and more specifically denounced the vile and hateful content contained in the film he chose to publicize.
