The Bucks have had serious conversations about sitting out Wednesday's Game 5, while the Magic have left the floor minutes before scheduled tipoff.

In the wake of the Jacob Blake shooting in Kenosha, Wisconsin, multiple players have spoken of boycotting upcoming games as a form of protest. Previously the Raptors and Celtics have been mentioned as having discussions about sitting out, but the movement appears to have reached the Bucks and Magic as well. It's an unprecedented move but one that the players may feel is necessary to spur actual change in the aftermath of another tragedy.
