In the midst of the fallout between the NBA and Kyrie Irving, a former Atlanta Hawks point guard has now sounded the alarm on how the vaccine ultimately ended his season last year, and how his team attempted to cover up the side effects he suffered from the shot.

Three-year guard Brandon Goodwin was ruled out of the 2020-21 season halfway through due to a "respiratory condition." Goodwin is currently a free agent, and with nothing to lose, shared the experience of getting blood clots — which he confidently believes came from the vaccine.

"I was super tired in the games. When we played Philly back-to-back [Apr. 28-30], bro, I was so tired," Goodwin said, during a Twitch stream on Oct. 3. "I felt like I couldn't run up and down the court. My back was hurting. Then we went home, that's when my back really started hurting bad. Then I'm like I have to go to the doctor, that's when I found out I had blood clots."
