*Cleveland Cavaliers star Kyrie Irving has written a lengthy Facebook post in response to social media accusations that his recent post-NBA Championship yacht party must’ve had a “no black girls allowed” policy.
When video surfaced showing the athlete with nothing but white girls in attendance, Twitter felt a way and accused him of being blinded by Becky.
Definitely lost all respect for Kyrie Irving. Don’t respect a man that downs his fellow black sister.

For every Kyrie Irving out there that doesn’t appreciate black women, there is also a Dirk Nowitzki that does. #StayWoke

In his Facebook response posted Wednesday, Irving called the backlash “ridiculous”:
I was raised by the black women in my family and for me to be connected to some nonsense like a “No black girls allowed” party is embarrassing and an inaccurate portrayal of who and what I represent as man.
