Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris used the phrase “monumental courage” to describe decisions by the NBA and WNBA to cancel games, in protest of the officer-involved shooting of Jacob Blake. On October 26, 2020, Breitbart News reported that the NBA’s Milwaukee Bucks opted to boycott the fifth game of the Eastern Conference playoffs in light the August 23, 2020, officer-involved shooting of Jacob Blake. As a result of the Bucks’ decision, the NBA announced it would postpone three other playoff games set to take place as a show of support.
