The NBA players association, led by President Chris Paul, voted with the NBA Board of Governors and team owners to approve Commissioner Adam Silver's proposal to resume the season on July 30.
However, NBPA Vice President Kyrie Irving is against the whole idea, and is calling on other NBA players to opt-out of the games due to safety and "social justice" concerns.Last week, another Brooklyn Nets superstar, Kevin Durant, was the first player to publicly announce he will opt-out of the NBA games due to health and social justice reasons.
At the time, his injured teammate, Irving, supported the restart and said that he will fly to Orlando to support the Nets even if he can't play any games.
