Clever protest

Thought this was clever. I know I'll be watching tomorrow's game to see if they go through with it!




Phoenix Suns will wear ‘Los Suns’ jerseys as partly a political statement against ‘flawed’ state law.
The Phoenix Suns basketball franchise announced that they will be wearing “Los Suns” jerseys on Wednesday night for Game 2 of their playoff series against the San Antonio Spurs. The game will be played in Phoenix. Team owner Robert Sarver, a Republican, said the jerseys will “honor our Latino community and the diversity of our league, the state of Arizona and our nation.” Sarver also made clear in a statement that the selection of the Spanish-language jersey — which will coincide with Cinco de Mayo — is a political statement against Arizona’s new anti-immigrant law.
