News about Jonathan Isaac

On Easter Sunday, Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac took to social media to condemn the White House for commemorating Transgender Day of Visibility, before remarking that it never falls on March 31. Isaac, 26, took to Twitter on Saturday to condemn President Joe Biden's proclamation of International Transgender Day of Visibility on the same day as one of Christianity's most significant holidays. 'They want you to hate! This helps no one and only promotes division,' Isaac tweeted. They know exactly what they're doing...'

Jonathan Isaac, the Magic Big Guy, has announced the founding of a Christian clothing business for 'freedom-loving Americans.' Isaac was the first NBA player not to kneel during the national anthem three years ago, following George Floyd's death. However, he has since grown a clothing business that appeals to those who share his beliefs.

Jonathan Isaac (pictured left center) of NBA will debut a 'anti awakened' series of clothing aimed at strengthening conservative ideals in August 2023. The Orlando Magic star, 25, wrote on Twitter, stating: "Retail businesses have the right to go woke." We have the freedom to design an alternative.' We should be proud of what we believe in.' In a recent Prager U documentary covering the launch, We don't have to conceal or be ashamed of it.'

Isaac underwent surgery on Friday to repair the muscle, but the Magic said he would miss the remainder of the regular season. He felt pain on his left side after practice on Tuesday, and an MRI revealed the severity of the condition on Wednesday. Since missing 2-1/2 years due to a serious knee injury and other setbacks, he played in 11 games this season. And now, he is dealing with yet another period of recovery and healing. 'Our thoughts are with Jonathan,' whose fortitude in dealing with adversity is unique,' Orlando Magic President of Basketball Operations Jeff Weltman said.

On November 1, Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving slammed New York City Mayor Eric Adams' decision to lift the private-sector vaccination law while still allowing his own mandate for local government employees to continue. 'If I can work and be unvaccinated, then all of my brothers and sisters who are also unvaccinated should be able to do the same, without being discriminated against, mocked, or fired,' Irving tweeted. 'This enforced Vaccine/Pandemic Act is one of the biggest human rights abuses in history.' Irving was out early for much of last season as a result of the city's local private-sector law and the Nets' decision to not use him for away games, citing their preference for full-time players. In January, team officials relented, allowing him to attend road games, and the city followed suit in February by lifting the indoor ban, allowing him to play at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

According to a recent healthy and safety policy released Tuesday, the NBA continues to raise COVID-era restrictions for players, but those who are unvaccinated will still be required to perform weekly testing. Although all symptomatic players must be tested, unvaccinated players will also be subjected to once-week surveillance testing, except on days off or if recently recovered,' according to the new guidelines. Facemasks, on the other hand, are no longer needed. The NBA has never mandated vaccinations for players, but did defer to local health laws, resulting in unvaccinated Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving being suspended for severing portions of last season. On the advice of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the league did reduce isolation periods over the course of the 2021-22 season.
