has stepped down from his TV role with the team ... after facing major backlash for tweeting"All Lives Matter."
Napear -- who has worked with the Kings since 1988 -- was initially placed on leave after a Twitter interaction with ex-Kings star"All Lives Matter… Every Single One!" Napear answered ... to which Cousins replied,"Lol as expected.", who added"Would expect nothing less from a closet racists [sic].","I’m not as educated on BLM as I thought I was. I had no idea that when I said 'All Lives Matter' that it was counter to what BLM was trying to get across.
-- who played for the Kings from 1998-2005 -- wasn't buying Napear's explanation, tweeting in support of the players' claims. "Demarcus we know and have known who grant is. The team knows as well. I’ve told them many times. They’ve seen it. They know who he is." Napear -- who also hosted"The Grant Napear Show" at KHTK Sports 1140 -- has been fired from his radio gig as well following the backlash.
