The New York Knicks have ruined their chances at competing anytime soon. This is all because of their owners doing how the organization handled the death of George Floyd.
ESPN’s Brian Windhordt reports on First Take Wednesday how players have reacted to how the Knicks have handled this tragic situation. “The Knicks approval rating amongst players is so low right now,” Windhorst said on First Take on Wednesday. “It’s devastating for their hopes to appeal to anybody and say, ‘Come play for us’ going forward. The whole purpose of retrofitting their front office, and hiring one of the most successful agents in the business in Leon Rose, hiring an image consultant, Steve Stoute, who is famous for doing work with African Americans and being more inclusive, it’s all undercut when the owner continues to show bad judgment.
