(CBS Sports) Fans aren’t going to see “Black Lives Matter” and social justice messages on NBA courts and jerseys next season. In an interview with ESPN earlier this week, NBA commissioner Adam Silver revealed that the social justice messages aren’t going to be noticeable like they were in the bubble this season.
“We’re completely committed to standing for social justice and racial equality,” Silver said. “It’s part of the DNA of this league.”
“I would say in terms of the messages you see on the court on our jerseys, this was an extraordinary moment in time, when we began the discussions with the players and what we all lived through this summer.”
