LeBron on Unifying People at Cavs Media Day

LeBron James spoke about the collision of sports and politics following President Donald Trump's comments against athletes protesting during the national anthem during Cleveland Cavaliers Media Day Monday afternoon. 

James wouldn't refer to Trump by name but said the president is trying to use sports to divide the country.  James said sports are “amazing” for what they can do for everyone.

James also said that while he has a platform he is not going to let one individual use sports to divide us.
