Sixers rookie Matisse Thybulle casts his vote ahead of election day

Philadelphia 76ers rookie Matisse Thybulle was out and about early on Monday to cast his vote in the election.

It is election season across America and the Philadelphia 76ers are getting involved in every way they can. The Sixers started their own voting initiative called “Vote 76” and the players have been vocal about their passion for voting as well.

Rookie Matisse Thybulle has been one of the bigger voices when it comes to his important issue and he even had the social message “vote” on the back of his jersey when the season resumed in the Orlando bubble. On Monday, he put his words into action as he was out at the polls casting his vote for the upcoming November 3 presidential election.

Voting is a right that everybody in America is lucky to have. When Thybulle shared his reasoning for choosing the word “vote” on his jersey, he mentioned that his father grew up in Haiti and he did not have the same rights in that country. It is good to see him taking advantage of the opportunity presented to him. [lawrence-related id=38459,38456,38452]
