Over the weekend, LeBron James wanted to give a shoutout to the late Breonna Taylor and apologize to her for the delay on justice with regards to her death, in her own bed, at the hands of Louisville Police officers. But he’s far from the only player in the NBA championing Taylor’s cause and the hope for justice to be served on her killers.
On Monday, Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris was the latest to use his platform to bring attention to Taylor’s case, putting pressure on Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron to press charges on the officers who were responsible for Taylor’s death. LeBron echoed Harris’ comments on Monday, saluting him for using his platform to hopefully bring justice.
