Statement from Pacers Head Coach Nate McMillan

"The recent killing of George Floyd, an unarmed black man, is nothing shy of inexcusable and my whole heart feels for his family in their difficult time of grief.

Unfortunately, this pain is far too common for the black community in America, the place we claim to be so great. Enough is enough.

What is so Great about oppression, pain, and suffering? What is so Great about hatred, violence, and racism? For as long as I can remember, the black community has had to piece itself back together time and time again through the agony of injustice.
