Georgetown discusses becoming first college basketball team to wear ‘I Can’t Breathe’ T-shirts (PHOTO) | CollegeBasketballTalk: " Georgetown became the latest athletes — and the first college basketball players — to wear ‘I Can’t Breathe’ t-shirts.

On Wednesday night, while hosting No. 10 Kansas on national television, Georgetown’s men’s basketball team entered the Verizon Center floor for their final warmup wearing the black shirts with white words in support of Eric Garner, the Staten Island man who died after being placed in a chokehold by a police officer. He died while saying “I Can’t Breathe,” and it was all caught on video. On December 3, a grand jury declined to indict the officer."
