Sacramento Kings guard Ben McLemore grew up about 15 minutes from Ferguson, Mo. On Sunday, McLemore paid his respects to Michael Brown with this message on his shoes during the Kings' game against the Memphis Grizzlies.
It was the second significant sports tribute to Brown on Sunday. Earlier in the day, several members of the St. Louis Rams mimicked the "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" pose that several protesters have used.
