Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson lead Warriors group at Oakland protest

A protest organized by Golden State Warriors player and Oakland native Justin Toscano-Anderson drew some of his biggest-name teammates.

Stephen Curry, joined by his wife Ayesha, and Klay Thompson were on hand for a peaceful protest on Wednesday around Oakland’s Lake Merritt, chanting the names of Breonna Taylor and George Floyd and “Hands up, don’t shoot.”

Stephen and Ayesha Curry also took a knee during the protests.

The Warriors contingent are just a few of the many NBA players to take part in the protests against racial inequality and police brutality since the death of George Floyd in police custody.
