Summary: <div>This week on the show we speak to <a href="http://NBA.com">NBA.com</a>’s Sekou Smith about the NBA’s return, black lives matter, and protest. Smith gives us his take on activism coming out of the NBA’s bubble as we think about where we go from here. </div> <div> <br> </div> <div>We also have some ‘Choice Words’ about the surge in activism from NCAA athletes, particularly in some of the country’s most powerful institutions. In addition, we have ‘Just Stand Up’ and ‘Just Sit Down’ awards to the always brilliant Boston Celtics swingman Jaylen Brown and recurring terrible person, Georgia Senator Kelly Loeffler. All that and more on this week’s Edge of Sports!</div> <div> <br> </div> <div>Sekou Smith</div> <div>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/SekouSmithNBA?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor">@SekouSmithNBA</a> </div> <div><a href="https://www.nba.com/writer/archive/sekou-smith">https://www.nba.com/writer/archive/sekou-smith</a></div> <div> <br> </div> <div> <strong>Zirin,</strong> <strong>The NCAA Finally Faces a Reckoning</strong> </div> <div><a href="https://www.thenation.com/article/society/ncaa-strike-covid/">https://www.thenation.com/article/society/ncaa-strike-covid/</a></div> <div> <br> </div> <div>—</div> <div> <br> </div> <div> <a href="http://www.edgeofsportspodcast.com/">http://www.edgeofsportspodcast.com/</a> | <a href="http://twitter.com/EdgeOfSportsPod">http://twitter.com/EdgeOfSportsPod</a> | <a href="http://fb.com/edgeofsportspod">http://fb.com/edgeofsportspod</a> | email us: edgeofsports@gmail.com | Edge of Sports hotline: 401-426-3343 (EDGE)</div> <div> <br> </div> <div>—</div> <div> <br> </div> Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
