The Clippers were in Portland when they learned the tragedy. Clippers' management took note that the Los Angeles Kings wore decals with the inscription "Enough" on their helmets on the ice at Staples Center on Thursday night. Headed by Annemarie Loflin, Clippers basketball chief of staff, and equipment manager Max Reza, the team quickly ordered "Enough" t-shirts ahead of Saturday's game. .

The Clippers invited the Bucks to participate in the commemoration. Both teams wore jerseys, which were approved by the NBA, under their warmup jackets and revealed them during a moment of silence in the dark of the stage.
