Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving fired off his first tweet in more than a month as he remains sidelined from playing in any games because of his refusal to get the COVID-19 vaccine.

The Nets are, so far, 8-4 without him and have a game against the New Orleans Pelicans to prepare for Friday night. But before that happened, the star point guard sent a three-word tweet.

The Nets point guard was also spotted Wednesday attending Seton Hall’s first home men’s college basketball game of the season. He was seated courtside next to former Pirates star Tim Thomas and was masked the entire time. He didn’t appear to speak to the media.

Whether Irving comes back for Brooklyn this season depends on whether he either gets vaccinated or the team decides to use him for games outside the Barclays Center. Unvaccinated team members are barred from entering indoor facilities in New York City.
