Victor Wembanyama joined the San Antonio Spurs in 2023
San Antonio Spurs' Victor Wembanyama said he is "horrified" after two fatal shootings by immigration agents in Minnesota.
Intensive care nurse Alex Pretti, 37, and fellow Minnesota resident Renee Good, 37, have both been killed by federal agents in the city this month, sparking protests both locally and in other parts of the US.
An Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operation in the city ordered by US president Donald Trump's administration has been going on for more than six weeks. ICE agents have the power to stop, detain and arrest people they suspect of being in the US illegally.
Frenchman Wembanyama said he was reluctant to speak out as he is not a citizen of the US and that the Spurs' public relations team had advised against it.
