Jaxson Dart's appearance at President Donald Trump's New York rally drew mixed reactions, with teammate Abdul Carter expressing disappointment.
Carter clarified that he felt it was his responsibility to speak out against Dart's alignment with Trump, citing his role as a team leader and face of the franchise.
However, Carter emphasized that his disagreement with Dart did not mean there was personal hatred between the teammates, stating they were close and shared the same goals.
Jaxson Dart addressed the situation, explaining that he understood politics could be sensitive and that his intentions were to show respect for the presidency.
