Commentary

Check out any professional and most college basketball teams. Their starting five, and most of their other 10 players, are black, as is 80 percent of the NBA. This does not come anywhere close to the diversity and inclusion sought by the nation’s social justice warriors. Both professional and college coaches have ignored and threw any pretense of seeking diversity and inclusiveness.
