LeBron James and the National Anthem Debate

LeBron James respects the national anthem. Recently, James was questioned at a media event about the attention San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick has been getting for his protesting. Unlike Kaepernick and other athletes, James is standing up for the values he believes in — patriotism, honor and American pride.

James has been a pro athlete for 14 years and has played for the Cleveland Cavaliers for 11 seasons, leading them to three championships and being ranked a four-time MVP. He’s the Cavs’ all-time leading scorer, and along the way, he’s also played for the Miami Heat, helping that team win back-to-back championships for 2012 and 2013.

James is a popular all-star who enjoys the spotlight and who’s appeared in movies and television shows like Saturday Night Live. For James to show his allegiance to his sport and to the country by standing for the national anthem proves he’s a team player who respects the values and the principles that this country was built on.
