Phoenix Suns Monty Williams, NBA coaches react to Capitol Hill protests

Phoenix Suns coach Monty Williams is all about family.

So when he saw the chaotic scene at Capitol Hill where 1,000s of Donald Trump supporters protested the presidential election results with some breaking into the building, his first thought was for his mother.

"We texted just to make sure stuff like that wasn't leaking out into (Prince George's County) where I grew up." Williams said before Suns faced the Toronto Raptors at Phoenix Suns Arena.

While he admits not having an answer for what happened, Williams says he'll unfortunately have to talk with his children about something that hasn't happened since 1814 when British troops burned the building during the War of 1812.
