The NBA world received huge news as the Brooklyn Nets released a statement saying Kyrie Irving was suspended for his actions. Irving’s suspension attracted the support of another controversial figure, Kanye West. Meanwhile, Irving was sent to the shreds by NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal. However, his response to Ye has backfired, and this threatens to tear the two icons apart.

Recently, Irving was under fire as the star posted a link on Twitter about a controversial documentary. The documentary portrayed Anti-Semitic rhetoric and called the Holocaust the Hoax. And when he was asked several questions about it, Irving gave very vague answers. This was the final nail in the coffin for the Nets, as they suspended the point guard for a minimum of five games.

Amidst all this, Irving seems to have found support in Kanye West. However, the legendary rapper himself is in a hot soup and his comments have cost him dearly. Furthermore, West has lost multiple deals and millions of dollars. And some reports suggest that he may have lost his status as a billionaire.

Interestingly, West recently sent out a tweet on Shaquille O’Neal and David Beckham. And Shaq did not like it and he fired back.

Shaquille O’Neal replied to Kanye West on Twitter after he was called out. He replied, “Believe me you don’t know me like that. Worry about your business, and to quote the once great Kanye West “I got more money than you, so why would i listen to you” take my advice get your family business in order. Have a great day brother.”

However, NBA fans were not too pleased with the comments in response to Kanye West. They slandered him for his boastful comments. Here are some of the best reactions:
