Hindi rin nakatiis ang ilang manlalaro ng Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) at may ilan din silang mga ipinaabot na mensahe hinggil sa nagaganap na malawakang protesta sa Estados Unidos matapos masawi ang isang African-American na si George Floyd sa mga kamay ng mga puting police officer ng Minneapolis.
Nagpahayag ng pagsuporta si San Miguel point guard Chris Ross sa kanyang Instagram account sa mga nagpoprotesta dahil sa ‘diskriminasyon’ sa mga itim, habang nagre-retweet ng mga videos at ipinaliliwanag ang sitwasyon sa U.S.
“For those of you that aren’t informed…” kasabay ng pagpapakita ng tweet ng isang Ava Duvernay.. “Before you say those things that you don’t truly understand or think that thought you’ve been trained to think, listen to this and dig deeper.#13th#JusticeforGeorge.”
Sa isa pang hiwalay na tweet, ayon kay Ross, “Riots do not develop out of thin air! Certain conditions continue to exist in our society! A RIOT IS THE LANGUAGE OF THE UNHEARD! It’s failed to hear the promises of freedom & justice have not been met! As long as America postponed Justice these riots will happen! (Please listen)” makaraan ay ipinaskel ang tweet ni Martin Luther King III.. “My fathers words are just as relevant now as they were back them. Please listen and share. “
Dugtong pang tweet ni Ross, “When Kaepernick takes a knee in silent protests there is a problem! When people riot there is a problem! I guess you guys just wants us to stay silent!!"
Sa tweet naman ni Ginebra veteran Joe Devance, “You guys are the reason this will continue to happen. I wish there could be another way.”
Nagbahagi rin ng makahulugang mga tweets sina Meralco Bolts player Chris Newsome, Aaron Black, Kobe Paras laban sa racism at police brutality sa U.S. kung saan pawang mga black American ang diumano'y madalas na naaapi.
