Michael Jordan said “I am deeply saddened, truly pained and plain angry' over what happened to George Floyd.
“I am deeply saddened, truly pained and plain angry.” That was part of a statement from former NBA great Michael Jordan on the situation surrounding the death of George Floyd. In recent days, several current and former professional athletes have voiced their concerns about the ongoing problem of police brutality against minorities.
“I got a grandfather who marched next to Dr. King in the 60s,” Brogdon said to the crowd. “He was amazing and he would be proud to see us all here.” Karl-Anthony Towns, an All-Star center for the Minnesota Timberwolves, was also seen at a press conference in Minnesota, the state where George Floyd was killed. Towns was seen in a mask at an event where former NBA player Stephen Jackson was speaking about racial inequality.
“I am heartened by the many members of the NBA and WNBA family – players, coaches, legends, team owners, and executives at all levels – speaking out to demand justice, urging peaceful protest and working for meaningful change, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said in the statement. “Racism, police brutality and racial injustice remain part of everyday life in America and cannot be ignored”
