Lakers News: LeBron James Calls Out Saints’ Drew Brees For Statement About Kneeling During National Anthem

In recent days, people all across the world have come together to fight social injustice after George Floyd was killed by a Minnesota police officer who kneeled on his neck for more than eight minutes.

Thousands of athletes have let their voices be heard on social media, and that includes the Los Angeles Lakers organization, who released a statement, and its players also using their platforms.

The Lakers were known to have great chemistry throughout the 2019-20 season, and that was again on display this week when they all came together and posted the same message on social media in addition to a number of individual posts calling for change.
