Disrespectful in light of what this country has done for him and the privilege he’s enjoyed by simply being a basketball star. Maybe that’s why he has so many thugs on his team.
I came in from out of state and attended the SMU basketball game over the Thanksgiving holiday. The majority of SMU basketball players stood at the national anthem with heads bowed as well. The opponents players ALL stood correctly. Head bowed or take a knee, it is disappointing that so many don't realize the privilege they are given to live in this county. Thousands are trying and dying to get in.
