President Trump’s recent comments about NFL and NBA players have caused an uproar and sparked much conversation around our nation. The majority of professional athletes in the NFL and NBA are African-American, and many have been vocal about their support of Colin Kaepernick and why they’ve chosen to kneel as well.
During the Philadelphia 76ers media day, JJ Redick, an 11 year NBA Veteran, unequivocally denounced President Trump as well. In less than 60 seconds, JJ touched on oppression, human emotion, being anti-Trump, his daily breakfast, and protesting.
“How often do you go through a day and not be offended by the guy?” – JJ Redick, 76ers Shooting Guard

Does their support matter?
