FILE - In this Jan. 26, 2020, file photo, Denver Nuggets' Will Barton (5) is shown in the second half of an NBA basketball game against the Houston Rockets, in Denver. Barton says that he decided against wearing a social justice message on the back of his jersey at the NBA restart because he does not believe those actions will make enough of a real impact. Many NBA players took advantage of the chance to wear a saying like “Black Lives Matter” or “Equality” on the backs of their jerseys for the season that will resume July 30 at Walt Disney World. Barton is a native of the Baltimore area, and said he’s active where he’s from through conversations with schools and YMCAs. He believes efforts like those have more impact.
