John Thomas, Minnesota Timberwolves & Minnesota Lynx VP of Basketball Development

Minnesota native John Thomas, a former NBA player and current VP of Basketball Development for the Minnesota Timberwolves and Lynx, and Kim Miller, RISE’s VP of Programs and a resident of South Minneapolis, join us for a conversation about the murder of George Floyd, the ensuing nationwide protests around police brutality and systemic racism, and the impact of athletes and the sports community in creating change. We discuss the current situation in Minneapolis and a town hall conversation led by RISE within the Timberwolves and Lynx organization about what they can do to address racism and foster real change in their community.
