LeBron James on Kyle Rittenhouse Crying During Trial: 'Man Knock It Off!'

Lakers star LeBron James weighed in on the video of Kyle Rittenhouse taking the stand during his murder trial Wednesday afternoon. James took to Twitter to comment on Rittenhouse's first public comments on what happened in downtown Kenosha, Wis., on Aug. 25, 2020.

James said that Rittenhouse must have eaten some Lemonheads—a popular sour candy—before taking the stand. He also noted that he didn't see any tears coming out of Rittenhouse's eyes.

Rittenhouse is on trial for killing two people and injuring a third during protests following the shooting of a Black man, Jacob Blake, by a white police officer last summer.
