After practice, Jamahl Mosley expressed concern regarding the shooting at Florida State University, which left two dead and several injured. He highlighted the necessity of perspective in troubling times, stating that human lives are far more significant than basketball games. Mosley’s statements resonate deeply given the proximity of Orlando to Tallahassee, and Magic player Jonathan Isaac, who played at Florida State, reflected on the tragedy, emphasizing the emotional impact it has on those connected to the university. The team used its platform to call for compassion and support for those affected.
This is the opportunity right now to talk about putting things in perspective. What's going on at Florida State ... I just want to send thoughts, prayers that things are handled speedily and that we can just continue to pray for those that have been impacted by this.
Lives are more important, and human beings are more important, than a basketball game or a playoff series at any given time. And that's what we need to continually remember in these moments right now.
My mind is kind of all over the place. Obviously, I don't have the details, but it's tragic and I'm sad about it. I'm sad about anything that happens like this anywhere but for it happen at Florida State takes a toll, means a lot.
The Bible says to grieve with those who grieve, mourn with those who mourn, and in times like this, it's important to reach out and support one another.
