The Toronto Raptors arrived to the NBA campus at Disney World with “BLACK LIVES MATTER” written on their buses: Warriors forward Draymond Green had some questions about that. Appearing on TNT, Green asked Raptors president Masai Ujiri about the buses. TNT: Green: You have on your bus Black Lives Matter.
