US basketball star Kyrie Irving has apologised after he was suspended by his club, the Brooklyn Nets, amid allegations of anti-Semitism.

The star received a five-game ban after he defended his decision to post a link to a documentary that has been criticised as anti-Semitic on Twitter.

In a statement posted to Instagram, Irving said he was “deeply sorry” for the “hurt and pain” he had caused.
