Denver Nuggets coach Michael Malone broke down in tears as he paid tribute to the 10 victims of Colorado's latest mass shooting and dedicated Tuesday's game against Orlando Magic to the families dealing with the aftermath.

Police on Tuesday publicly identified the suspect, Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa, who stormed a King Soopers outlet in Boulder armed with an AR-style semi-automatic rifle, a handgun and wearing a tactical vest and opened fire, killing 10 people - including a policeman."It seems like we've been here before," Malone said."Obviously, yesterday was another tragedy. Hopefully it's something that we can find a way to prevent from happening in the future.

Malone proceeded to read the names of the victims but teared up when he arrived at the name of Eric Talley, an 11-year veteran of the Boulder police force who was the father of seven children and among the first officers on the scene. Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr sat in front of a black background that featured names of the 18 people who died in mass shootings over the past week, including the eight during a shooting spree at three spas in and around Atlanta.
