I wrongly assumed sports fans have heard.
They've decided to let him play away games, but not practice & he still can't play against the Raptors, Warriors or Knicks. (Those cities have vaccine mandates to be in those arenas.)
So, he can't play home games, can't go to the practice facilities & the Nets only have 4 practices scheduled on the road for the rest of the season!
So, he gets 50% of his salary for playing 90% of their remaining away games & 4(!) practices.
BTW: The Nets are in first place in the eastern conference without him after 3/8ths of the season.
