Nike is suspending its relationship with Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving, the company said in an emailed statement to CNN

“At Nike, we believe there is no place for hate speech and we condemn any form of antisemitism,” the statement says. “To that end, we’ve made the decision to suspend our relationship with Kyrie Irving effective immediately and will no longer launch the Kyrie 8. We are deeply saddened and disappointed by the situation and its impact on everyone.

” “There is going to be some remedial steps and measures that have been put in place for him to obviously seek some counseling … from dealing with some anti-hate and some Jewish leaders within our community,” Marks said. “He’s going to have to sit down with them, he’s going to have to sit down with the organization after this, and we’ll evaluate and see if this is the right opportunity to bring him back.

Bend down kissing the ring

Nike you have contracts with vietnam and china... your have a cristal roof.

I hope the big companies understand that by doing this it just proves these people's points

I haven't worn Nike since the 90s... back when they were good!

What about Ilhan Omar and the “squad”, they made many antisemitic comments but no cancel culture or media shaming on them!!!

Nike still sell their shoes on Amazon?

This is stupid. The left has gone way too far with this. But it’s on to hate white people. CNN and democrats applaud white hatred. C’mon man. The real racist are democrats.

Time for athletes to go into manufacturing

Too far! Leave my fellow Jersey brother alone

Good. There’s 30 other players better than him in the NBA. If he never gets to play in the league again it won’t be a loss.

Until Kaepernick says otherwise? Nike is a joke 🤣

Oh wow lol

This is thrilling

Is Suspend Culture the new Cancel Culture?

Time for Kyrie to start up a new Saudi basketball league!

They took out Jesus looks like they are gonna take out Kyrie next. If he would of said that anywhere else he would of been ok. But not in Brooklyn. 🤦‍♂️ Kyrie must not of noticed a Jewish deli on every corner and synagogues all over the place

The tribe really revving up their cancelling engines this month!

Too bad. That's what he gets. No sympathy for him whatsoever.

It’s time to look into BLM. The group are antisemites. Go through their social media. Expose them.
