NBA player apologizes for Holocaust selfie

An American basketball player apologized Wednesday for posting a photo of himself at Berlin’s Holocaust memorial with an “insensitive” caption.

San Antonio Spurs forward Danny Green posted the “selfie” at the memorial site on social media photo sharing website Instagram Wednesday with the caption, “You know I had to do it one time lol #Holocaust.”

Green and the Spurs were in Berlin for a game Wednesday against German basketball club Alba Berlin, which won the contest 94-93 in an upset.

Green first changed the caption to read “A lot of history here, more than you could imagine…very sad/tragic things happened #holocaust #berlin,” according to British news source the Guardian.

However, he later took down the post and apologized in a series of tweets for the “insensitivity” of his post.
