The feud between LeBron James and USA president, Donald Trump, has intensified in the past couple of days and the legendary Michael Jordan and many NBA players defended James and showed their support to the “King”.
“I support LJ,” Jordan said in the statement to the Associated Press on Saturday. “He’s doing an amazing job for his community.”
Many NBA superstars, including Bradley Beal, Jared Dudley and Donovan Mitchell, took to Twitter and responded to Trump’s tweet.
Tired of you! https://t.co/3vYwL0OyMx

Don Lemon of the CNN, who was verbally assaulted by Trump as well, responded via his Twitter account.
Who’s the real dummy? A man who puts kids in classrooms or one who puts kids in cages? #BeBest https://t.co/XO50qVksnR
