Tony Parker, Boris Diaw, Evan Fournier and Damien Inglis were ringside to witness the unanimous tribute from the NBA to the victims of the terrorist attacks in France.
The NBA has been able to pay tribute to the France. The Marseillaise sounded so in 7 forums which catered meetings last night, preceded by a minute of silence each time perfectly respected by an American audience marked by drama event that occurred in Paris Friday. Across the country, supporters have expressed support to the four present french on the floor on this occasion.
But it is still in extremely specific conditions that Tony Parker, Boris Diaw, Evan Fournier and Damien Inglis had to do their job. If the latter did not participate in the victory of the Milwaukee Bucks in double overtime (108-105, a.p.) against the Cleveland Cavaliers Le Bron James, he sported a T-Shirt 'Pray for Paris' during his warm-up, explaining that he would not speak until later on this tragedy.
On the side of San Antonio, where the Spurs have emerged against the Philadelphia Sixers (92-83), the emotion was impossible to hide on the faces of Boris Diaw, the captain of the team of France, with Tony Parker, star of the Tricolor selection, at the time when their national anthem was played AT & T Center. "It's nice and touching to see all this solidarity here and around the world. My friends and my family are going well, but we know all someone who has lost a loved one. I am lucky that it is not be happened to me,"said Diaw on NBA.com. "It's amazing, I still can't achieve. I spent the last 24 hours to make phone calls to make sure that the people I know are going well.At least, this game allowed me to think about something else for a while", Parker continued.
