Ben Simmons & The Sports Vaxx Standoffs (Kyrie Irving, Evander Kane, & Wash St Coach Nick Rolovich)

from Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast · host Conduct Detrimental

We cover the two NBA superstars facing sports law drama. First, Ben Simmons (4:15) who refused to report to the Philadelphia 76ers and then was suspended for - what else?? - conduct detrimental and then Kyrie Irving (14:15) who is not “anti-vaxx” but made the choice to not get the vaccine for whatever reason and the Brooklyn Nets have responded with a choice of their own -- "you're banned". Sticking with the vaccine topic, we move over to college football where Washington State Head Coach Nick Rolovich (22:30) was fired from the university for failing to get the vaccine by October 18th in violation of a state law mandate. Rolovich has since announced his intention to sue the school for religious discrimination. Lastly, we close the book on Evander Kane (30:32) who received a suspension for using a fake vaccination card though he was spared from punishment stemming from the assault and gambling allegations.
