Kyle Lowry and Serge Ibaka confirmed that the NBA players were close to leaving the Orlando “bubble”.

The reason was their decision to boycott Wednesday’s and Thursday’s games as a way to protest for Jacob Blake’s shooting.

Blake was shot seven times in the back by the police in Wisconsin and is paralyzed from the waist down.

The players decided to continue playing, though, and use their platform to force change.
