Sport Teams STOP & Stand Together. Players SPEAK with Their Feet

"We are experiencing a Pearl Harbor in the social justice movement.." Bucky Waters, Veteran Sports Broadcaster from ESPN, Madison Square Garden & NBC & Former NBA Coach for WVA & Duke University states.

Jimmy Lewis, Former WNBA Coach & Coach at Multiple Colleges and Former Sports Commentator discuss the impact of sports teams across basketball (NBA & WNBA & baseball (MLB) boycott in late August, 2020 of their remaining respective seasons in support of the social justice movement.

Although the boycott was resolved and the already limited seasons resumed, individual players such as Jamal Murray (NBA Basketball Player for the Denver Nuggets) had the faces of Breonna Taylor & George Floyd painted onto his tennis shoes - using his feet on the court to speak.

Players today represent six & seven figure salary investments and teams standing in unity add another place value. As players and teams use their voices to stand in unity with the social justice movements, mind sets are beginning to change.

Bucky Waters & Jimmy Lewis further discussed whether college basketball players should be paid - relaying their decades of both personal experience as players and later coaches with payment & their recommendations for those discussing the details of reimbursement.

These two legends in the field of sports history further provided a valuable and grounding baseline for topics such as 'the career of Colin Kaepernick' each voicing different views of his stance, but providing a respectful understanding of the ability of two life long friends to contribute to this conversation.
