Welcome back to the NBA Desktop! This week Jason Concepcion takes a look at the different ways players are protesting systemic racism and police brutality, including WNBA players’ pointed actions against Georgia senator and co-owner of the Atlanta Dream, Kelly Loeffler. Then he breaks down Tony Allen disrespecting Frank Ntilikina, Devin Booker’s game-winner and the surprising bubble Suns, and Carmelo Anthony’s continued resurgence. Plus we are joined by The Ringer’s Kevin O’Connor to talk about balancing video games and work, and David Gborie, who is now a full-blown conspiracy theorist.
