WNBA Team Holds Moment Of Silence For George Floyd As League's Social Justice Insufferability Continues
The Minnesota Lynx held a moment of silence for George Floyd in the year 2025.
Well, would you look at that, the
WNBA has made yet another headline that has absolutely nothing to do with the game of basketball. It's just another day where the league, which has never been more popular, can not get out of its own way.
The latest
social justice pandering from the league centers around the Minnesota Lynx and the death of
George Floyd. And to be clear, you didn't wake up in the past. It is 2025, and we have a professional sports franchise still bringing attention to Floyd's death in 2020.
The Lynx hosted the Connecticut Sun on Friday, but before the game tipped off, Minnesota forward Napheesa Collier grabbed a microphone at midcourt to address the crowd and say a few words about Floyd two days before the fifth anniversary of his death in Minneapolis.
"George was a father, a brother, and a son, and his life, like every life, held meaning," Collier said. "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."
According to posts across social media, a moment of silence was held prior to tipoff as well.
