The Nets and the league are happy with what Irving has done throughout the suspension process, especially given the number of community leaders he has met with, via the report.

Irving already missed eight consecutive games after being suspended by the team for promoting an antisemitic movie and refusing to admit his fault and apologize.

"Kyrie rejects antisemitism in any form, and he's dedicated to bettering himself and increasing his level of understanding. He plans to continue this journey well into the future to ensure that his words and actions align with his pursuit of truth and knowledge," National Basketball Players Association executive director Tamika Tremaglio previously told ESPN.

This season, Irving averages 26.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 5.1 assists for the Nets.
