New York Knicks forward Kevin Seraphin, a native of French Guiana, is, like the rest of the NBA's considerable French contingent, playing with a heavy heart.
As the Knicks hosted the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday, the 25-year-old - who moved to Paris nearly a decade ago, has family there, and continues to call it home - expressed his support for the people of the city, and the victims of Friday's terrorist attacks that left at least 129 dead.

Before tipoff, a moment of silence was held and the French national anthem was played at Madison Square Garden.
