Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James has become the latest high-profile personality to endorse Democratic presidential candidate and current vice president Kamala Harris. He officially made his choice clear by posting a compilation video of Republican presidential candidate and former president Donald Trump and his supporters looking down on migrants and minorities in America.
King James took to X to share the controversial video, adding a caption that called for voters to support Harris.
“What are we even talking about here?? When I think about my kids and my family and how they will grow up, the choice is clear to me. VOTE KAMALA HARRIS!!!” James posted.

LeBron James joins a slew of showbiz, media, and sports personalities that support Kamala Harris, including Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry, WNBA legend Sue Bird, talk show host and media proprietor Oprah Winfrey, singers-songwriters Beyoncé and Bruce Springsteen, rapper Eminem, and actors Samuel L. Jackson and Chris Rock.
Harris, who stepped in for current president Joe Biden, who withdrew from his bid for reelection, is currently in a close race to the presidency with Trump. The US elections are set for Nov. 5.

Kamala Harris backed LeBron James and Team USA in Paris Olympics
Way back before LeBron James expressed his support for Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris, the current vice president took her time to wish him and the rest of Team USA well in their quest for gold at the Paris Olympics earlier this summer.
Days before the sporting event, Harris flew to Las Vegas to visit the national team in their training camp to send her encouragement and support.
“Bring back the gold,” she told the players in the middle of practice. “Truly, you all represent the best of the best. And being Team USA, it is about representing our nation. You are, as you are every day on and off the court, ambassadors for who we are as a country. You represent leaders in every walk of life. And for you to go to Paris and bring back that gold is just another example of excellence, your teamwork, your compassion and your commitment.”
