REPORTER: "International controversy took center court in south Philadelphia. The Sixers took on a team from China in an exhibition game. Fans in the stands took sides now that China and the NBA  are in a standoff over a Houston Rockets executive's Tweet that showed support for pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong. This is the video showing the Sixers fan saying he was being escorted out of the game. Sam Wachs and his wife held signs supporting the Hong Kong protesters, which were then confiscated. Wachs admitted he then stood up and started yelling 'Free Hong Kong.'"
