"LeBron James spoke out after his Los Angeles home was vandalized Wednesday with a racial slur sprayed across the front gate.
Speaking at a press conference ahead of Thursday's tip-off of Game 1 of the NBA Finals between his Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State Warriors, James said he was thankful that his family was safe, but issued a strong statement on race relations in America.
"I mean, as I sit here on the eve of one of the greatest sporting events that we have in sports, race and what's going on comes again and on my behalf and on my family's behalf," James began. "But I look at it as this. I mean, if this — if this is to shed a light and continue to keep the conversation going on my behalf, then I'm okay with it.'*
