Draymond Green and Angel Reese, the victims of this scourge that seemed banished from American basketball
both the NBA and the WNBA with despicable and totally unacceptable comments from the stands against Draymond Green, a Warriors player, and also against Angel Reece, a Chicago Sky star and one of the best players in the women’s professional basketball league.
In the case of Draymond Green, the controversial Warriors player suffered this type of comments during the third game of the Western Conference semifinals that his team played at the Target Center in Minneapolis, the Wolves’ court, although he wanted to downplay the importance of the thugs who uttered them against him.
Racist things were said in Minnesota. I don’t like that these strangers feel important, but yes, racist things were said. And it’s not the first time. In these environments racist things are said
Racist things were said in Minnesota. I also don’t like that these strangers feel important, you know? But yes, racist things were said. And it’s not the first time. In these environments racist things are said,” revealed the power forward during an appearance on his podcast. These accusations led to the Wolves themselves issuing a formal statement apologizing for the incident.
Green calls for fines and sanctions for these fans
For Green, the lack of accountability is the worst part, and he believes that those who caused the incident on the court should face fines and penalties just like the players: “I’ll tell you the truth: the fans are privileged,” he said. “And when I say that, I mean that they can say pretty much whatever they want, without limits. And if we say something to them, we get in trouble. We lose money. We get fined. All the punishment falls on us.”
Fans are a privileged group… they can say practically whatever they want, without limits. And if we say something to them, we get in trouble. We lose money. We get fined. All the punishment falls on us
