The NBA on Sunday made an official response to the improper tweet over China's Hong Kong Special Administrative Region by Daryl Morey, general manager of the Houston Rockets. The league's Chief Communication Officer Mike Bass said that Morey's post has "deeply offended" the Chinese people and that's "regrettable," but made no apology.
Meanwhile, Morey himself posted two tweets, claiming that "offending or misunderstanding" Chinese fans and sponsors was not his intention, yet, he made no apology either.
According to John Gonzalez of The Ringer, the Rockets are mulling over Morey's employment status and whether to replace him.
