Irving, the vice president of the Brooklyn Nets, had tweeted about a movie that contained antisemitic tropes.

Despite the condemnation by the NBA, Irving's tweets still received some backlash from his peers.

The NBA also condemned the comments made by Kanye West.

The NBA and Brooklyn Nets also issued statements condemning the comments.

These actions are just the latest in a series of examples of professional athletes.

Many companies have severed ties with Ye after his anti-Semitic tirades.

However, Irving is unlikely to face consequences for his tweet.
