The Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray started his media availability with a gesture in honor of Breonna Taylor and George Floyd.
Murray place a custom pair of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor shoes on a stool and walked off. He returned after two minutes in order to explain the symbolism behind his move.
“How long was that? Two minutes? One person on those shoes had a knee on their neck for eight. You just got to think about that,” Murray said.
After a two-day strike with players protesting against police brutality, the playoffs will restart Saturday with the three games that got postponed on Wednesday.
