Each cap had "Make America Great Again" stitched in white letters, just like the one President Donald Trump often wears; but the words "Great Again" were crossed out, and the message "Arrest The Cops Who Killed Breonna Taylor" was printed below them.
The Lakers' Instagram account shared a gallery of the team wearing the caps from the hotel to the arena for their playoff opener with the caption, "Justice for Breonna Taylor."
"You know, this is something that we continue to put our foot on the gas, continue to pressure," LeBron James said after the Lakers' 100-93 loss. "You know, the situation that's going on in Louisville, Kentucky. An innocent woman being killed in Breonna Taylor, a woman who had a bright future and her future was taken away from her. And there's been no arrests. There's been no justice. Not only for her, but for her family.

Note the shirt: “by any means”

Beanies with twirling propeller on top...
Maybe the Blazers are just fired up because they don't have to play in Portland.
Overseas money, especially China.
"Groovy..."
