One of them came from Mike James, who took a position through social media and criticized the decision of the president of Burgos.

"Yea, I'm not kneeling for none of that s**t," James tweeted. "I woulda walked to the back on bro and took my shower."

"ACB, this the type of league y'all got? Wild s**t," James added later.

Monaco's star also had an exchange with AX Armani Exchange Milan guard Malcolm Delaney.

"I don't know who raised these boys, man," Delaney replied.

"I'm not blaming players because some people need the money and s**t like that, but that's wild this was even proposed," James answered.

"Man, I'm definitely blaming them," Delaney answered. "They going to get fined for not taking a knee? Nope, I blame all parties. Them boys grown as hell with kids."

However, Delaney also clearly expressed his opinion that such behavior should not be tolerated.

"Kneeling to get boo'd is ridiculous," Delaney tweeted. "That's not an apology to the fans, that's letting the fans belittle grown a** men… Crazy players even accepted that."

Meanwhile, FC Bayern forward Augustin Rubit was speechless, sharing a GIF on social media.
