Houston Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta strongly denounced a tweet from general manager Daryl Morey on Friday night after the GM posted an image supporting protesters in Hong Kong.
Morey later deleted his tweet, an image that read, “Fight For Freedom. Stand With Hong Kong.”
Fertitta told ESPN’s Tim MacMahon that he felt compelled to publicly clarify that the Rockets do not take political positions due to the reaction to Morey’s tweet, but Fertitta stressed that he has no issues with Morey.
