Moorman Looks to His Role Models in The Fight for Racial Justice

Lebron James and Kyrie Irving have won championships, held dominant stats across multiple categories in the NBA, and their jerseys are amongst the highest selling for the league. They are prominent figures and role models for many, including Temple University men's basketball senior forward JP Moorman II.

"Obviously those two guys are someone I look up to on the court; especially Lebron and his versatility and Kyrie's amazing offensive showcase," Moorman said.

However, Moorman does not look up to the two NBA players solely for their achievements on the court.

"Seeing two of the better players in the NBA, really just take a stand for what they believe is right is empowering to the youth," Moorman said.
