The Women’s National Basketball Association’s Minnesota Lynx held a moment of silence for George Floyd at the start of their game against the Connecticut Sun on Friday. Minnesota forward Napheesa Collier grabbed a microphone and took to the center of the court to speak about the fifth anniversary of his death. “George was a father, a brother, and a son, and his life, like every life, held meaning,” Collier said. The player continued, “His death exposed the holes that are still in our justice and criminal institutions today. His five-year anniversary reminds us that we want to continue the fight against criminal, racial, and social injustices. We can not stay silent.” LMAOO.. the @WNBA had a moment of silence to honor George Floyd. Thoughts?? pic.twitter.com/fhGD2gSzVV…
