LeBron James sent out a call for justice for Jacob Blake, who was shot in the back by Wisconsin police on Sunday.

A graphic video of Blake being shot by police circulated on social media on Sunday night, showing Blake walking away from two police officers and opening the door of his car. One of the officers pulls his shirt from behind and then seven shots were fired.

James shared the video on his Twitter account while emphasizing that it was situations like this that prompted him and other players from across the NBA to speak out on social justice issues.

"And y'all wonder why we say what we say about the Police!!" James tweeted. "Someone please tell me WTF is this???!!! Exactly another black man being targeted. This s--- is so wrong and so sad!! Feel so sorry for him, his family and OUR PEOPLE!! We want JUSTICE."

James wasn't the only player to send out a message of support to Blake and anger towards those who targeted him. Utah Jazz superstar guard Donovan Mitchell also sent out a tweet calling attention to the shooting.

"F THE GAMES AND PLAYOFFS!!!" Mitchell wrote. "THIS IS SICK AND IS A REAL PROBLEM WE DEMAND JUSTICE! ITS CRAZY I DONT HAVE ANY WORDS BUT WTF MAN! THIS IS WHY WE DONT FEEL SAFE!!!!"

Many players, James included, have used their time inside the NBA bubble to raise awareness of social justice causes as the league resumed its season. James and his Lakers teammates have regularly worked to focus on the calling for justice for Breonna Taylor, who was killed by police in Nashville in March.
