Draymond Green To People Saying ‘Sports Can Wait’: “Why Can Sports Wait?–We Too Have A Job To Do”

Draymond Green has a message for people saying “sports can wait” after major league sports teams boycott their games in the wake of the Jacob Blake shooting.

Jacob Blake, a black man, was shot in the back seven times by Kenosha, Wisconsin police.  Following the outrage of this, the Milwaukee Bucks took the lead as they chose to boycott game 5 of their first round of playoff games against the Orlando Magic. Many major league teams then followed suit and as a result, three NBA playoff games, three WNBA gams, three MLB games and four MLS games were called off.

Draymond Green seemingly isn’t here for the boycott and calling the games off however, and doesn’t necessarily agree with people who are saying “sports can wait.”

Draymond did say that he’s here for what the Bucks did, however, he further explained his differing opinion.

Draymond may have gotten his wish however, as NBA players voted to continue with the basketball season as early as this Friday following the boycotts Wednesday.
