John Stockton’s refusal to wear a mask continues a trend of the Utah Jazz Hall of Famer offering views that contradict scientific research on issues related to COVID-19.
Since the pandemic began, the Utah Jazz Hall of Famer has offered views that contradict scientific research on issues related to COVID-19.
“When the rule changes, then tickets will be re-offered,” Stockton said. “I don’t know what the right terminology is. When the rule changes.” Now, though, Stockton has expanded his opinions into further misinformation. In the full transcript of the interview with the Spokesman-Review, the former point guard asserted that over 100 professional athletes have died from the vaccine —When asked how he began to form his opinions on the pandemic, Stockton cited Rudy Gobert’s positive test as a catalyst.
“Then one university after another university until the conferences shut down and the tournament shuts down,” Stockton said. “Not one additional piece of evidence was offered for why each one did it. To me, it’s perplexing, but yeah, right from the start, I was contemplating it, thinking it through and seeking out more and more information.”
In addition, Stockton felt that his son’s decision to remain unvaccinated has affected his professional career. David Stockton, now playing in the G-League with the Memphis Hustle, hasn’t been called up to the NBA since the Jazz did at the end of the 2017-18 season.
