His NBA career is washed.

My guess hi new career is to be a Jesus freak and pod caster.

No it's the hourlong rambling videos in his car every day that is the meltdown.

I’m sure if he was Muslim it would have been celebrated

He’s been in a dark place since his injury then getting traded to the crappy bulls from the 1 seed pistons. He also made some comments about women’s basketball (his mom is the women’s HC at notre dame. )

And Catholicism yesterday, calling it a false religion. I don’t think Niele Ivey’s Catholic but she’s a very prominent figure at perhaps America’s most well-known Catholic university, so it’s also an interesting choice by him.

I got to be honest. Ain't nothing he saying wrong He actually preaching truth. Being dead to sin and alive in Christ is the true meaning of what was accomplished at the Cross.

Mr. Ivey is preaching the unvarnished word of the God of the Bible. God bless him! You know people will think you're crazy when you turn from the world's riches. But, those who are truly believers in the Most High God will do just that and speak the truth.

If I had to guess, I think he was waived because of the drama, not specific comments. Dude was rambling, and while I don’t think any of what he said was offensive, save maybe the Catholic thing, he randomly brought Steph Curry and his family up in a video a short while ago.

Either he has a few screws loose, or he is extremely devoted to his religion, but a guy saying anything remotely controversial on a consistent basis, regardless of topic, will probably be cut if he’s not great on the floor.

The NBA has a massive problem and it’s not Jaden Ivey

Also correct. And if these leagues really cared about mental health, the headline regarding Ivey wouldn’t be him getting cut.

If he was a solid starter this would have been ignored


He was scoring 18 a game and one of the better guard defenders in the league just a short 2 years ago. That is a solid starter.

I just watched ivey’s video

Not once did he argue in favor of government oppression of gays and lesbians

Not once did he say he hated gay people or opposed equal rights

He simply said he disliked the league celebrating unrighteousness.

Per basic biblical teaching, homosexual is unrighteous. Aka Ivey was merely stating a Christian belief

The bulls kicked him off the team for being a Christian

Adam Silver is probably the weakest commissioner in major sports. He will ignore this altogether.

Why do people keep watching woke leagues like NBA and NFL? Homosexuality is mental illness.

He said told no lies.

Belief in Christ is purely belief that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, who rose from the deas to save us from our sins.

Nothing in the Bible tells us to worship saints, angels or even to pray to anyone except the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
