Chauvin on Tuesday was convicted on all three charges against him: second-degree murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter.
The Minnesota Timberwolves and Minnesota Lynx released separate statements shortly after the verdict was announced.
The Twins released a powerful statement earlier in the day before the verdict was reached:
The NBA and WNBA released statements, as well.
Sentencing will take place in eight weeks.
