The names of the victims were also read over the PA system before a moment of silence leading up to the national anthem, according to [Uproxx](https://uproxx.com/dimemag/lakers-hawks-lebron-james-enough-shirts-thousand-oaks-shooting/2/). Newly minted Laker LeBron James, who previously [wore an “I Can’t Breathe” shirt](http://time.com/3624684/lebron-james-i-cant-breathe-eric-garner/) in 2014 in solidarity with protestors rallying against a grand jury’s decision not to indict the police officer involved in the death of Eric Garner, also took to Twitter to express his grief over the shooting. “My thoughts and prayers are with the families who lost loved ones last night in Thousand Oaks, CA!!!!” he wrote, adding the hashtag [#LoveIsStrongerThanHate](https://twitter.com/hashtag/LoveIsStrongerThanHate?src=hash). > [](https://twitter.com/Lakers/status/1061805447508713472) > [](https://twitter.com/KingJames/status/1060588463798374401) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5451985/lebron-james-lakers-enough-shirts/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5451985/lebron-james-lakers-enough-shirts/"},"headline":"Here's How LeBron James and the Lakers Paid Tribute to the Thousand Oaks Shooting Victims","datePublished":"2018-11-12T17:19:37.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:55:57.769Z","description":"The names of the victims were also read over the Staples Center PA system","url":"https://time.com/5451985/lebron-james-lakers-enough-shirts/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Basketball","Lebron James","NBA","Sports"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blta9271cd6f19a4730/69893ec8457a520284d5fd90/lebron-james-enough.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blta9271cd6f19a4730/69893ec8457a520284d5fd90/lebron-james-enough.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"LeBron-James-Enough","caption":"LeBron James #23 of the Los Angeles Lakers warms up before the game against the Atlanta Hawks on November 11, 2018 at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles, California.","creditText":"Andrew D.
