Minutes after the US Supreme Court’s decision to overturn the historic abortion decision, NBA star LeBron James posted a series of retweets of Barack Obama’s comments on the court’s decision.
As soon as the decision was announced Friday morning, the former president said the Supreme Court had “reversed its nearly 50-year precedent” regarding abortion.

At least for the first hour after the court’s annulment, LeBron James did not personally comment on the matter, choosing instead to let Barack Obama tweet.
LeBron’s retweet also made no mention of current White House resident Joe Biden, perhaps illustrating how James placed Biden in his personal hierarchy of political heroes.
