星期六比赛开始前,吉米·巴特勒从一件背上没有名字的球衣换成了一件有他姓的球衣。
巴特勒先前解释说,他希望自己的名牌保持空白。
“我决定不(带口信),”巴特勒当时在与记者的视频通话中说话虽如此,我希望我的姓也不要写在那里。只是因为我喜欢和尊重联盟选择的所有信息,但对我来说,我觉得没有信息,没有名字,它会回到我原来的样子。如果我不是今天的我,我和其他有色人种没什么不同,我想以此作为我的信息,因为我是一名NBA球员,每个人都有同样的权利,无论发生什么,这就是我对我的有色人种的看法。”
巴特勒说,他从来没有得到联盟的官方解释,为什么他不能保持他的球衣名牌背面空。

Jimmy Butler Not Allowed To Wear Jersey With Blank Nameplate
原文:
Jimmy Butler changed out of a jersey with no name on its back to one with his last name before the start of Saturday's game.
Butler previously explained that he would like to keep his nameplate empty.
"I have decided not to [wear a message]," Butler said during a video call with reporters at the time. "With that being said, I hope that my last name doesn't go on there as well. Just because I love and respect all the messages that the league did choose, but for me, I felt like with no message, with no name, it's going back to, like, who I was. And if I wasn't who I was today, I'm no different than anybody else of color and want that to be my message in the sense that just because I'm an NBA player, everybody has the same right, no matter what, and that's how I feel about my people of color."
Butler said he was never given an official explanation from the league as to why he could not keep the back of his jersey nameplate empty.
