New Philadelphia 76ers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey shared concern that his career in the NBA might have been over after sharing a post on social media that expressed support for a protest group in Hong Kong.
"In the last 12 months, I had moments where I thought I might never work in the NBA again, for reasons I was willing to go down for," Morey told ESPN while discussing his new role with the 76ers. "But I love working, I love what I do, and I didn't want that to happen."
The question so many have posed is why Morey felt compelled to take on the issue.
