Rangers, Knicks refuse to make statement on George Floyd killing

New York Rangers and New York Knicks owner Jim Dolan has received a lot of criticism recently, along with both organizations, about their lack of a response or statement following George Floyd killing. Fans are wondering where the statement is, and players are starting to get uneasy.

I'm told that Knicks players and employees are furious that the team hasn't made a public statement about George Floyd. And I just obtained the e-mail that owner Jim Dolan sent to MSG employees today defending the organization's decision to stay silent: pic.twitter.com/xG1BA7tV5V

Per Pablo Torre, Dolan has stated internally that neither club will release a statement.
