NBA Players Unite Across The League During American National Anthem
The New York Knicks and the Houston Rockets are the latest teams to join others in the league as players from both teams locked arms and showed solidarity during the American National Anthem before yesterday's pre-season game.
With social and racial injustice at the forefront of America's culture right now, Carmelo Anthony has been leading the charge against this cause, with some believing he is one of the driving forces behind the latest action in the NBA. Other teams who have joined the cause and locked arms during the anthem is the Boston Celtics, Washinton Wizards, Toronto Raptors and the Golden State Warriors.
Check out the video below to see what the Boston Celtics have to say as they try and rally support for the cause.
