Agreed and this is why you won't see wide spread "protesting" on the PGA. It would be the same in the other leagues if their salary relied on their play.
As to the original question. I don't think the NBA will hurt much at all. We're not exactly in their target market. The NFL has proven it has too much of a pull for enough people to turn their TV sets off. I think MLB and the NHL are taking huge risks and I'd be very surprised if this doesn't hit them deeply in the pocket book.
I'm just surprised they are willing to hitch their wagon to Jacob Blake. I don't understand how you can look at the facts of that and see that this was somehow racially motivated and that in any way he was not the person 100% in the wrong.
