The decision annoys the American president. The NBA announced the postponement of the three play-off games scheduled for Thursday, the day after the boycott decided by the players to protest against the police shootings against the African-American Jacob Blake. The body, which had also had to postpone the three meetings on the program the day before, said "hope to resume the game on Friday or Saturday".
US President Donald Trump on Thursday accused the NBA of having become a political organization after the boycott. “I don't know much about the protests within the NBA. I know their ratings are very bad because I think people are fed up with the NBA, ”he said. “They have become a bit like a political organization and that is not a good thing,” he added.
