Lebron James will not wear any social justice message on his shirt

Los Angeles Lakers star player, Lebron James, He said he is one of the few in the NBA who will give up wearing a social justice message on the back of his shirt when the season resumes in Orlando, Florida. “I will not use a name on the back of my shirt.”

“It is not disrespectful to the list that was transmitted to all the players. I commend anyone who decides to put something on the back of the shirt. It is simply something that did not seriously resonate with my mission, with my objective,” he added.

“I would have loved to have a say by putting something on the back of the shirt, but I agree with that. I don’t need to have something on the back of the shirt for people to understand my mission and what it is all about.”
