Jaylen Brown Defends His Decision to Stick With Donda Sports After Kanye’s Anti-Semitic Remarks

Jaylen Brown is feeling the Kanye sting.

Kanye West has used every opportunity he’s had in recent days to continue his attack on Jewish people. Any time he’s been given an interview opportunity, Kanye has been repeating vile remarks about the Jewish people. Free speech is cool and all, but it does come with consequences.  And Kanye’s now been dropped by sneaker giant Adidas, a move that reportedly cost Adidas hundreds of millions of dollars, and also took Kanye out of the billionaire club.

It was only a matter of time before everyone dropped Kanye West after he posted these remarks on Instagram and Twitter in early October:

“I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE. The funny thing is I actually can’t be Anti Semitic because black people are actually Jew also You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda,”

Everyone is pretty surprised that anyone at this point would stick with Kanye West throughout his anti-semitic tirades. And athletes who are repped by Kanye’s Donda Sports are now being asked if they’re going to continue working with Kanye.

TMZ Sports asked Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown about his relationship with Kanye’s Donda:

“First, I don’t condone any hurt, harm, or danger toward any group of people or individuals whatsoever. The reason why I signed with Donda Sports, it represented education, it represented activism, disruption, it represented single-parent households, and a lot more people are involved in something like that.

According to TMZ Sports Jaylen added that his relationship with Kanye West is a “sensitive subject” but went on to say:

“He’s someone who’s obviously dealing with a lot of adversity that’s in front of him right now, and everybody can see it, and it’s public. But a lot of people in the world are dealing with adversity and things that are going on that’s in front of them, and they need help. It’s a lot going on right now.”

Donda Sports currently represents Jaylen Brown and Aaron Donald.

Only a matter of time before Jaylen Brown dumps Kanye too.
