Way back in 2016, LeBron James used his voice to endorse Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump for president, even going as far to join her at a campaign event in Cleveland. It did not work out in their favor four years ago.
Fast forward to 2020 and the Los Angeles Lakers superstar says he will officially join Team Biden and will actively campaign for the V.P. and Kamala Harris to defeat Donald Trump in the presidential election.

“Congrats and well deserved Sen. Kamala Harris!! Love to see and support it! Appreciate you JB,” he wrote.
