The Boston Celtics are something of an anomaly in the NBA in that the team has not one or two but three vice presidents in the National Basketball Players’ Association, the league’s union — and all three of them are also activists for causes beyond the sport of basketball as well.
Recently, while the Celtics were in the US capital of Washington DC to play the Washington Wizards, that trio — Jaylen Brown, Malcolm Brogdon and Grant Williams — had an opportunity to go to the White House to talk to the Department of Justice about criminal justice reform on Monday.
