Head coach Brett Brown gave a similar response when asked about the current situation with playing a team from China.
The team didn’t offer any comment specifically on Morey’s tweet or the subsequent reaction by the league, but Brown did offer something.
“[The league's response] did surprise me a little bit, but it's really all I feel personally I want to say about the matter,” Brown said. “I understand what's gone on since the comments. And I will just repeat, it's an easy few sentences, we had a great time in China and they just love basketball. … And that's my stance on it, and tomorrow night. And I hear your social question, but it's not my place to comment on that right now.”
When pressed about how he would approach a player that wanted to express themselves politically or socially in general, Brown didn’t elaborate much.
“I'm gonna let you down because I don't really have anything more to say,” Brown said. “I think people can do what they choose to do. You know, they're big boys, they can handle it however they choose to and I genuinely mean that, and that's how I would handle it.”
Ben Simmons, Josh Richardson and Kyle O'Quinn all spoke after Brown. None of them took a stance on the issue, saying they didn't feel informed enough on the matter to do so.
