LeBron James has said he did not mean to critique the United States or the country’s ongoing response to Russia’s detention of basketball star Brittney Griner, following the airing of comments in a trailer for his television show.
Speaking in a recently released trailer for The Shop: Uninterrupted, James said Griner “would be feeling like, ‘Do I even wanna go back to America?”’ He added in the clip: “Now, how can she feel like America has her back?”
