Often controversial, Irving faced a public backlash early in the 2022-23 season when he posted a link to a movie and a book that shared an antisemitic message on social media.
In the aftermath, the Nets suspended Irving for eight games after he initially failed to disavow antisemitism. Nike also terminated its $11 million annual contract with Irving 11 months early and canceled the release of Irving’s signature shoe.
“Kyrie stepped over the line. It’s kind of that simple,” Nike co-founder Phil Knight told CNBC on Nov. 10. “He made some statements that we just can’t abide by, and that’s why we ended the relationship. I was fine with that.”
