The Brooklyn Nets announced Kyrie Irving’s return on Friday night. By Saturday afternoon he was sidelined by the NBA's health and safety protocols.

Less than 24 hours after the Brooklyn Nets responded to a burst of Covid-19 cases by welcoming back the NBA’s most prominent unvaccinated player, the team made a less surprising announcement on Saturday: Kyrie Irving has already been sidelined by the league’s health and safety protocols.

Irving, who hasn’t played for the Nets this season because of his refusal to abide by New York City’s indoor vaccine mandate, was preparing to return for road games two months after , the Nets said Friday. His return came as the Omicron variant continued to spread and Covid cases officially hit a single-day record in the state of New York.
