Brooklyn Nets’ title contention rests heavily on Kyrie’s vaccination decision but the controversial star doesn’t look like he has any business to attend to.
Until now it looked like he wouldn’t be able to play any of Brooklyn’s home games and also in the other states which have mandates regarding vaccination. Now the recent developments say that he wouldn’t be playing or practicing with the team until he is fully eligible to participate.
