On December 17, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season was in full swing. According to previous reports, Irving was banned from playing and training by the Nets due to refusing to be vaccinated against the new crown. So far, the new NBA regular season has been running for two months, and Irving has never played for the Nets.
Earlier today, Owen updated his social media and he posted 4 pictures. In chronological order, Irving's first image was to promote his girlfriend's clothing brand. Owen's girlfriend's clothing brand is called HerKaiandI, and the brand wrote in a statement: "We are all pursuing destiny, but we do not define your pursuit, but to support and encourage each other on the journey, we can lead and connect everyone together." Recently, Owen has repeatedly promoted his girlfriend, and even personally worked as a model to take promotional photos.
Owen's subsequent two photographs are still his style, related to Owen's religious beliefs. The last photo seems to be related to some social justice events in the United States. Owen has always been very concerned about the topic of race, and he has repeatedly spoken out for some social events.
During the time Irving was unable to play, the Nets have done well and are currently in the First Place in the East with 20 wins and 8 losses. In recent times, the US media has exposed that Irving has been actively participating in training and intends to return to the Nets.
Nets coach Nash said: "I've always been in contact with Irving, but we didn't talk about returning to the team, it was just about life. I know he's training and he wants to play. But judging by the results of our conversations last week, nothing has changed. ”
Owen's friend and teammate Durant said: "The conversations between me and him are private and I don't want to reveal too much. I just want to say he's my brother, let's wait and see, I don't know what's going to happen. ”
So far, though, Owen hasn't publicly responded to this.
