True! For me I would say Love, Porzingis, Hayward, Jokic, and Marc Gasol are the only whites that fit as stars. I can see Lauri Markkanen and Doncic reaching star status in a season or two as well.

Memphis Grizzlies center Marc Gasol was part of an Spanish activist rescue effort in the Mediterranean Sea that saved the life of a shipwrecked migrant woman fleeing Africa on Monday.


Libyan Coast guard acknowledged intercepting migrant ship
Libyan Coast Guard spokesman Ayoub Gassim told reporters that the Coast Guard stopped a boat on Monday carrying 158 passengers, provided them humanitarian and medical aid and took them to a refugee camp in Khoms, a coastal city on the western side of Libya.

Ayoub Gassim rebuffed the criticism and blamed the tragedy on human traffickers and NGOs like POA.

“All disasters happening in the sea are caused by human traffickers who are only interested in profit and the presence of such irresponsible, non-governmental groups in the region,” Ayoub Gassim said in a statement.

Marc Gasol directly involved in migrant rescue
Gasol, who is seen in photos helping the woman on a stretcher while riding in a raft wrote about “frustration, anger and helplessness” over “vulnerable people” who “are abandoned to their deaths at sea” in a Tuesday Twitter post about the rescue.

Frustration, anger, and helplessness. It’s unbelievable how so many vulnerable people are abandoned to their deaths at sea.
Deep admiration for these I call my teammates at this time @openarms_fund

The connection between Gasol — a Spanish-born basketball player who has played in the NBA since 2008 — and POA is unclear, but his belief in the POA cause appears evident.

Group Gasol worked with critical of Libya
Oscar Camps, a leader of POA who took part in the rescue effort, criticized the Libyan Coast Guard’s account of its interception of the migrant boat as omitting the details about leaving behind the two women and the toddler. " data-reactid="34" style="margin-bottom: 1em; color: rgb(38, 40, 42); font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">Oscar Camps, a leader of POA who took part in the rescue effort, criticized the Libyan Coast Guard’s account of its interception of the migrant boat as omitting the details about leaving behind the two women and the toddler.

Libya at center of migration crisis


“This is the direct consequence of contracting armed militias to make the rest of Europe believe that Libya is a state, a government and a safe country,” Camps said on Twitter Tuesday.

what a ******. It's not like he was hanging out on his yacht and he saw some drowning Negress and decided to save her. He's going out of his way to volunteer for organizations dedicated to bringing more Africans to Europe. The Libyans actually care more about Europe than the Europeans.

My opinion of Gasol is now shot. How dissappointing. But he's still a great player, even if he's a cucked idiot.
