More from The Hill:
NBA star LeBron James on Thursday said that he supports Goodyear, the Ohio-based tire company that has faced calls for boycotts from President Trump.
…
James, who is one of the NBA’s most outspoken players on social justice issues, has often been critical of Trump.
Watch for yourselves, just to see how outspoken on social justice and critical of Trump LeBron is:

the tweet that LeBron James is attacking here, saying it harmed people "spiritually", read, and I am not making this up, “Fight for Freedom. Stand for Hong Kong.”
