Black Lives Matter Will Be On NBA Courts When The Season Resumes

In yet another progressive move by the NBA, the league plans on having "Black Lives Matter" across the sidelines on all three courts that will be used to play games in the 'bubble campus' in Orlando.

The WNBA apparently plans to follow suit when they resume play as well - including wearing "Say Her Name" shirts for Breonna Taylor.  This news comes just days after it was also reported that players will be able to replace their last name on their jerseys with a statement to support social justice.
