Tragic.

Is this even basketball related? Simply a tragic incident outside a basketball stadium surely?

Two groups who were in the stadium for casual shooting. Fight broke out, and now 1 dead. Simply tragic.

Absolutely horrible! Poor kid

Hearing on social media there are a lot of fights at that stadium.

Very tragic

Yes, it's a rough area and I'm told the kids are being particularly feral lately after having too much spare time on their hands during lockdown. More gang stuff and fights happening than pre covid.

Poor kid though. And someone just lost a son, brother. Sad.

Although I do wonder whether searches for knives etc (as suggested in the article by a spectator) may be an overreaction.

Crazy how people don't think about their own actions and the circumstances of how serious theses incidents can be.
