The NBA will allow players to replace their names on their jerseys with social justice statements. Will any Phoenix Suns players take advantage?
One of the ways the NBA plans to provide a platform for players to raise awareness of social issues will be to allow them to replace the name on the back of their jerseys with some kind of social justice statement. I’m a big promoter of allowing players to put nicknames on the back of their uniform, and while this isn’ that, it is a good move by the NBA. The question is will any Phoenix Suns players take the NBA up on their offer?
