Yeah, it's kind of like Kyrie Irving in the NBA. Of course the NBA wants him to play because the guy is "box office" talent like "The Joker" is for tennis. Unfortunately, he plays for the Brooklyn Nets and NY has a vaccination mandate, and he refuses to get vaccinated. He can't play in NY or in San Fran because they have a mandate as well.
Sucks for Brooklyn because they'll probably meet Golden State in the finals, and he can't even play. Brooklyn is paying him damn near $40M this year and they can't even use him when they'll need him the most.
Edit: They are paying him a little less than half of that because they are not on the hook for paying him in missed home games or other places where vaccinations are mandated...at least he is not stuck in a hotel though. He's just chilling in his mansion with his family when he can't play.
