Kyrie Irving addressed his recent fine from the NBA for not talking to the media with a statement posted on Instagram.
Irving posted a quote from Malcolm X before making his own statement.
"I pray we utilize the "fine money" for the marginalized communities in need, especially seeing where our world is presently," wrote Irving. "(I am) I am here for Peace, Love and Greatness. So stop distracting me and my team and appreciate the Art. We move different over here.
"I do not talk to Pawns. My attention is worth more."
