Brooklyn Nets superstar guard Kyrie Irving could be available for the team’s home games soon, as New York City apparently has a plan in place to phase out its current COVID-19 vaccine mandate.
Irving has been unable to play in Nets home games this season, as he remains unvaccinated against COVID-19.
The seven-time All-Star has appeared in just 14 games this season, averaging 24.1 points, 4.8 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game while shooting 45.2 percent from the field and 36.8 percent from 3-point land.
Brooklyn would surely love to have Irving available for as many games as possible. The team is currently 31-28 and sits in the No. 8 spot in the Eastern Conference. If the season ended today, Brooklyn would have to play in the league’s play-in tournament.
The Nets have made some major moves recently, acquiring guards Ben Simmons and Goran Dragic.
