So now all of a sudden Kyrie is at a birthday party, then he steps on the court \u2014 if [the video] is recent \u2014 but how can Karl-Anthony Towns look at a guy like Kyrie and when I\u2019ve lost my mom and my dad has been sick and I see you at birthday parties, you don\u2019t care about anybody else other than your family, your circle and what you\u2019re trying to do.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt just comes across as very selfish, if it\u2019s true.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nets <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> manager Sean Marks said in a statement Tuesday that the organization was aware of the video and was \u201creviewing the circumstances with both Kyrie and the NBA in order to determine compliance with health and safety protocols.\u201d The NBA\u2019s COVID-19 protocols prohibit players from going to bars, lounges or clubs, or <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social<\/a> gatherings with more than 15 people.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-megaphone\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"no\" height=\"200\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/playlist.megaphone.fm?e=ADL3972179818&amp;light=true\" width=\"100%\"><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Rockets star James Harden was previously fined for attending a gathering at a club while maskless. Irving could face the same punishment depending on the NBA\u2019s findings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was a lot of talk about James Harden,\u201d Jefferson said. \u201cJames Harden was trying at the time, he was like, \u2018Oh, I\u2019m done in Houston,\u2019 he\u2019s trying to go someplace else. Well, Brooklyn is where Kyrie wanted to go. Brooklyn is where Kyrie wanted to be. [He and] Kevin Durant, they were like, \u2018This is the team, this is what we want to build, establish. We want to do it together and we want to go on this journey.\u2019 So your behavior now doesn\u2019t look like that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Irving has been away from the team since last Thursday, with The Post\u2019s Brian Lewis reporting that his absence was related to the Capitol riot. The Nets were 1-2 in his absence entering Tuesday\u2019s game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re unh<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>y for whatever reason, get the help, get the happiness that you need,\u201d Jefferson said. \u201cBut understand that the game will continue to move on. Kyrie, if you don\u2019t want to play basketball, we\u2019ll support you. Many players have been activists. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Jim Brown, so many people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re not trying to take away from your activism if you need time off. But also, if you need time off, then go get it. But right now, it\u2019s just a bad look. He doesn\u2019t owe it to anyone, to us, but the league will continue to move on whether or not he participates in it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jefferson also brought up the need for Irving to communicate with his teammates regarding his leave from the team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo not be around your teammates, to not really have any sort of communication, I want Kyrie to get the help that he needs,\u201d Jefferson said. \u201cIf he has personal reasons, please, get that help. But you\u2019ve got to communicate with your team, your teammates and then you have to make sure that you\u2019re doing all of the COVID-necessary things because of where we are today in this situation.\u201d\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
