NBA insider believes the New York Knicks have damaged their image among players because of George Floyd response.
The New York Knicks, through their parent company Madison Square Garden, finally ended their public silence in response to the death of George Floyd this week by issuing a 35-word statement that recognized the role everyone must play in creating a more equal society and said they stood “with all who act for positive change.”
George Floyd was tragically killed on May 25 when a white police officer put his knee on Floyd’s neck for nearly nine minutes, while two other white police officers stood by and did nothing to help him.
