Some of these NBA players think this is just a touchy-feely NBA Cares op to Israel, not a Sheldon Adelson-organized political hit job.

      @EdgeofSports Evidence outside of the Politico piece? Especially given that it's an Israeli player leading the thing, I'm a tad dubious.

      @EdgeofSports Now, players outside of Casspi might not be super-educated on the issues. But I could believe eight pro-Israel NBA players.

      @ShorterPearson Outside Casspi? No evidence people know what this trip actually is. One player's rep I talked to think it's just "NBA Cares"

      @EdgeofSports So possible that Casspi is duping - or at least obscuring matters to - his teammates? Regardless, keep committing journalism.

      @EdgeofSports If there's further reporting to be done on this, I'll be VERY interested in reading it.

    @EdgeofSports Dave Zirin why is it that Hamas firing 5,000 rockets at Israel does not make you mad, but players VISITING Israel does? Bigot.
