Like the rest of us, Houston Rockets forward Thabo Sefolosha was horrified upon seeing the tragic death of Houston native George Floyd.
We’ve all seen the viral video, which shows Houston-native George Floyd being killed at the hands of the Minneapolis Police Department. Floyd was helplessly pinned down to the ground by officer Derek Chauvin, which has sparked protest and outrage globally. On Sunday, the Houston Rockets spoke about the incident, as did NBA commissioner Adam Silver.
Riots have ensued as a result of the unnecessary use of force towards Floyd, and the city of Houston hasn’t been immune to that either.
