LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. – Tired. That’s what LeBron James looked like answering questions following the Lakers win Monday night. Broken. That’s how Fred VanVleet appeared at the Raptors media availability on Monday. Frustrated. That’s how Jaylen Brown felt as he addressed another senseless shooting.
“We are scared as Black people in America," James said.
Said VanVleet, “It's just starting to feel like everything we're doing is just going through the motions. Nothing's changing.”
