6:47Now PlayingDespite being forced to miss a minimum of 43 games this season over his COVID-19 vaccine refusal, NBA star Kyrie Irving will still be paid over $19 million by the Brooklyn Nets.
Given New York City’s vaccination requirement, the team has announced that Irving will not be allowed to play or practice in New York until he gets vaccinated. Irving took to Instagram to say his decision not to get vaccinated is not politically motivated and “nobody should be forced to do anything with their bodies.” To many, whether they agree with Irving or not, his words sound precisely like a political statement, says “Prime” host Charles Blow
Forbes’ national sports columnist Terence Moore joins Blow to discuss Irving’s stance on the vaccine and what the season has in store for him.
All this and more on “Prime.”
