The NBA’s season seems to be saved for now, but on Wednesday night it felt like it was hanging by a thread.
NBA players protested against police brutality and violence against Black people on Wednesday by not playing in games. They also considered not playing for the rest of the postseason with both the Lakers and Clippers initially being in support of that measure.
After a good night’s sleep and some time, things have reversed and the players are set to play again between Friday and Saturday.
But we got the message loud and clear. The players want to do more and they want the league to do more with them. If they don’t? Basketball could be in trouble.
Mike Sykes has more on how the league needs to move forward to make sure that doesn’t happen.
