Nike has officially severed ties with controversial basketball star Kyrie Irving

Brooklyn Nets player Kyrie Irving is with Nike no more. According to statements released by both sides, a recent mutual decision to part ways has taken flight. The decision comes just weeks after Irving infamously tweeted anti-Jewish content that sent shockwaves through social media.
