According to foreign media reports on January 9, when the 2020 US presidential candidate Yang Anze was asked about the basketball stars he most wanted to cooperate with, he said, "I will definitely choose LeBron James to go with me." ”
Mr. Yang then said he was a big NBA fan; then he looked at the camera and asked the Los Angeles Lakers star, known as the "Emperor of Basketball," "LeBron, if you're watching this clip... Join me and let's work together. ”
Young added that James had a mirror-like heart and loved the American people.

So far, candidate Andrew Yang has won the support of a number of celebrities — including singer Donald Glover Jr., comedian Dave Chappell, rock band "Wither" lead singer Rivers Como, Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey, investor Sam Altman, actor Nicolas Cage and little fresh meat Noah Chintineo, and Tesla CEO Elon Musk.

However, in this strong support team, there is still a shortage of professional star athletes.
From the previous situation, James was not optimistic about Trump, and even called him "tramp" and "clown" many times; and finally voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016.
Therefore, it seems that James's preference for the Democratic Party may fall on Yang Anze.
Last September, Mr. Yang publicly launched a basketball challenge to Texas Sen. Ted Cruz on the show, "Anytime, Anywhere, One-on-One."

They agreed that the loser would have to donate $5,000 to a non-political charity designated by the winner.
Cruz took on the challenge online — but he told his followers on social media that Young had an advantage in height over him and looked like a good basketball player.
In a recent interview, Mr. Yang continued to challenge and invite Cruz, joking, "Ted, come on, you've accepted the challenge." The people of Texas deserve better; the American people deserve better. ”
