After Milwaukee city attorney Grant Langley released a statement saying that officers did nothing wrong when they utilized a stun gun during the January arrest of Bucks player Sterling Brown, the team released a statement expressing their full support of Brown.
"Sterling continues to have our full support," the team wrote. "What happened to him was shameful and inexcusable. We remain optimistic that meaningful progress can be made in our community in response to this incident."

The city's police chief and mayor had previously condemned the actions of the officers and apologized to Brown, who was stopped about a parking violation when the incident occured, but Langely's statements contradicted their stance.
