In the caption of the Instagram post, the New York Knicks All-Star forward — who was born in Brooklyn, but raiased in West Baltimore — extended sympathies to the family of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old black man who died on April 19, one week after sustaining a "significant spinal injury" while in the custody of Baltimore police after being apprehended on the morning of April 12 for reasons that remain unclear.
