The Brooklyn Nets and Kyrie Irving will each donate $500,000 "toward causes and organizations that work to eradicate hate and intolerance in our communities," they announced in a joint statement with the Anti-Defamation League on Wednesday.

"The Nets and Kyrie Irving will work with ADL (the Anti-Defamation League), a nonprofit organization devoted to fighting antisemitism and all types of hate that undermine justice and fair treatment for every individual," the joint statement said. "This is an effort to develop educational programming that is inclusive and will comprehensively combat all forms of antisemitism and bigotry."

The statement came in the wake of a social media post from Irving last week that promoted a film that features antisemitic tropes. Irving's post has since been condemned by Nets owner Joe Tsai, and the NBA responded by issuing a statement decrying hate speech.
