In light of Miles Bridges return, I will be boycotting watching the Hornets. However, stopping there would be hypocritical. Therefore, I have decided to boycott all NBA teams that have employed a player or coach with a confirmed history of domestic violence. To be clear, I’m not including dismissed cases, or rumors. I’m also not including situations that happened after a player left a team, or situations that happened after a player left a team. Also this isn’t 100% comprehensive, but enough for you to get the point. In 2001, Jason Kidd pled guilty to domestic violence. He went on to play for the Nets, Mavericks and Knicks. He also coached for the Nets, Bucks, Lakers and Mavericks. As a result, I will be boycotting these teams. In 2012, Jordan Hill pled no contest to domestic violence. He went on to play for the Lakers, Pacers, and Timberwolves. As a result, I will be boycotting these teams. In 2016, Darren Collison pled guilty to domestic violence. He went on to play for the Kings and Pacers. As a result, I will be boycotting these teams. Kobe played his entire career for the Lakers. In 2007, Ron Artest pled no contest to domestic violence. He went on to play for the Kings, Rockets, Lakers and Knicks. As a result, I will be boycotting these teams. In 2021, Jaxson Hayes was sentenced to community service for a domestic violence incident. He went onto play for the Pelicans and is now on the Lakers. I will be boycotting these teams. Hopefully, some of you can join me. These teams need to be held accountable. Also, please let me know who I’m missing.
People going to come at me but since when did we as a society say that people who have committed violent crimes can’t work? If you don’t like that he’s working shouldn’t he instead be incarcerated? But then isn’t society mad about black incarceration rates? So don’t send to jail but don’t let work either, make them be homeless? I’m really confused by all this.
