Basketball star LeBron James recently spoke with reporters after the Lakers’ home game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He was asked about the possibility of playing future games in an empty stadium should the NBA opt to ban fans from attending over fears of the coronavirus outbreak. James told reporters that he wouldn’t play if fans weren’t present, reports Hollywood Life.
The official Sports Center Twitter shared the video of James stating his opinion on the matter.
“I ain’t playing. I ain’t got the fans in the crowd. That’s who I play for. I play for my teammates. I play for the fans. That’s what it’s all about. If I show up to an arena and there are no fans in there, I ain’t playing. They [the NBA] can do what they want to do,” said James.
