LeBron James, who has refused to heed Fox News host Laura Ingraham’s advice to “shut up and dribble,” had a pointed message for the watching world on Sunday — and he wore it proudly on his shoes.
The Cleveland Cavaliers star arrived at the NBA All-Star Game at Staples Center in Los Angeles wearing a pair of white Nike sneakers with the words “More Than An Athlete” emblazoned on them.
James shared a shot of his shoes in an Instagram story Sunday afternoon with a “FACTS” hashtag and the “100” emoji.
Ingraham criticized James and Golden State Warriors star Kevin Durant last week for lambasting President Donald Trump in an interview with ESPN’s Cari Champion. James said in the interview that Trump “doesn’t understand the people and really don’t give a fuck about the people.”
Reacting to the interview, Ingraham told the athletes to “shut up and dribble” and to “keep the political commentary to yourself.”
James and Durant, however, were having none of it. Durant told USA Today that Ingraham’s comments were “racist” and that while he does “play basketball, I am a civilian and ... a citizen of the United States, so my voice is just as loud as hers ― or even louder”
