Kyrie Irving is one of the best basketball players in the world, and he is also the one who… raised the banner of the unvaccinated in the NBA during the COVID-19 years.

The basketball great paid for his refusal to take the vaccine by missing multiple games in the NBA in the 2021-22 season.

The Mavericks guard is celebrating Novak Djokovic’s success at the US Open. The Serb, who also refused to take the jab returned after 2 years in the US and won the US Open which was his 24th Grand Slam.

“The unvaccinated Novak Djokovic won the US Open. He won and we will too,” Irving wrote on Instagram and apparently believes he will win the championship with the Dallas Mavericks.
