Basketball star Kevin Durant on March 13 questioned why New York City’s mayor has kept a COVID-19 vaccine mandate for private employers in place, alleging the mayor wants attention.
“It’s ridiculous. I don’t understand it at all. It just feels like, at this point now, someone is trying to make a statement or point to flex their authority,” Durant told reporters after New York’s two basketball teams played at Barclays Center in the Brooklyn borough.
