The NBA announced Tuesday that it has terminated its relationship with a league-run training academy in Xinjiang, China—the region in which the communist nation is reportedly holding roughly one million Uyghur Muslims in concentration camps.
The announcement follows a June 30 letter from Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R., Tenn.) to NBA commissioner Adam Silver. Blackburn highlighted the league’s operation of an NBA academy in Xinjiang, which Blackburn described as “one of the world’s worst humanitarian zones.”
The Tennessee Republican detailed ongoing atrocities in the region. Her letter noted that the “800,000 and possibly more than 2 million Uyghurs and ethnic Kazakhs” detained in Xinjiang concentration camps endure “torture, physical abuse, and prolonged detention without trial.” The letter also said China used “sterilization treatments and forced abortions in a barbaric attempt to reduce Uyghur birth rates.”
“The NBA reportedly continues to operate a training center [in] Xinjiang,” Blackburn wrote. “What steps is the NBA taking to shutter this location?” more

… but will they shut off the Chicom spigot??
(I think we all know the answer to that)
A drip here a drip there soon we may finally see a torrent.
The NBA got caught sucking commie dick and swallowing for a few bucks. If they can’t see what has happened to the NFL and nascar as the fan base fled, ill leave them to continue sucking. To hell with them.
Chi-Commies can’t jump.
Will they be tearing down statues of Massa Xi now?
Since the average chinaman is around 5’5″, and they’re communists, do they shorten the height of the hoops and claim they don’t?
