The decision was made in the wake of the death of Jacob Blake, an unarmed Black man who is now paralyzed after he was shot seven times by Kenosha Police on August 23rd.
The Bucks are no stranger to issues with police. In 2018, Milwaukee Police used a taser to arrest Bucks guard Sterling Brown over a parking violation. After a bodycam showed the incident in full, officers involved received what people would perceive as a weak punishment which included a fifteen-day suspension and will have an employee improvement plan implemented.
The Houston Rockets are scheduled to play the Oklahoma City Thunder Wednesday Evening with the Los Angeles Lakers and Portland Trail Blazers as the nightcap. No word on if those teams will boycott as of yet, however, Lebron James took to Twitter to speak out.
