Novak Djokovic has found supporters in a pair of NBA stars after he was unceremoniously deported from Australia.
Former Golden State Warriors center Andrew Bogut and current Chicago Bulls star Nikola Vucevic traded tweets on Monday morning accusing the rest of the ATP Tour of hiding from the issue.
Bogut also pointed to the treatment of Czech doubles star Renata Voracova, who was allegedly asked to strip by Australian Border Force workers during her six-hour interrogation after arriving in Melbourne.
'We know for a fact not all Tennis players agree with what happened to Djokovic. We also know the ones that dont agree are too scared to speak out against mainstream narratives,' he wrote.
'What about the female player who was STRIP SEARCHED? Its eerily quiet.'

Vorocova was approved for a medical exemption after having an adverse reaction to an ingredient in the vaccine and had even played in a tournament in the Victorian capital prior to her deportation.
The 38-year-old was sent packing in the fallout from the Djokovic saga, telling a Russian publication she didn't feel safe and was even ordered to take her clothes off.
'I was worried. I didn't feel safe until I was back home, nothing was certain,' she said.
'It was as if I were watching a film, a long interrogation with instructions such as 'undress, get dressed'.
'Yuck, I don't even want to think about it, let alone live it again.'
