INDEPENDENCE, Ohio – LeBron James declined to clarify today what more he needs to know about the Tamir Rice case to offer his opinion, saying he gave "everything I had in Denver about the situation."
"That's as far as I'm going to go with it," James said, following the Cavaliers' morning shootaround in preparation for tonight's game against Orlando. "I've already talked about it. I don't feel like right now that I'm going to comment right now."
James has been panned by some activists and commentators for his pleading of ignorance Tuesday, when following a win over Denver he was asked for his thoughts on a Cuyahoga County grand jury's decision not to indict two Cleveland police officers in connection with the death of 12-year-old Tamir Rice, who was shot by police in November, 2014.
