Basketball star LeBron James made history on Tuesday when he broke the NBA record for most career points scored, but former NBA player Enes Freedom is publicly slamming James.
Freedom accused James of bowing to China, tweeting a list that included, "38,388 Points," "0 Morals," "0 Values," "0 Principles," "0 Empathy," and "1 Bow Down to #China."
"Congratulations to @KingJames," Freedom wrote.
"People get mad when I speak the truth because I'm the only athlete who actually speaks the truth," he wrote in another post. "I don't care about your endorsement deals or your dirty money. You can NOT buy me #CCP! Don't expect me to respect you or your game when your shoes are literally made by SLAVE KIDS."

Freedom is a staunch critic of human rights abuses around the globe, including those perpetrated in China. He has described Chinese President Xi Jinping as a "brutal dictator."
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy invited Freedom to the State of the Union address as a guest.
"@EnesFreedom loves the USA. He understands freedom. And he is willing to sacrifice his job in order to stand up against the Chinese Communist Party. I was proud to have him as one of my guests for State of the Union," McCarthy tweeted.
Freedom expressed his gratitude for McCarthy's "friendship, leadership and support."
\u201cI\u2019m deeply honored and humbled to attend the State of the Union address as @SpeakerMcCarthy\u2019s guest.\n\nI appreciate your friendship, leadership and support.\u201d— Enes FREEDOM (@Enes FREEDOM) 1675732846
Democratic Sen. Ed Markey of Massachusetts, who invited an "abortion rights activist" to the speech as a guest, wore an "ABORTION" pin with a heart-shaped cutout to the State of the Union address.
Democratic Rep. Madeleine Dean of Pennsylvania also posted a photo of herself wearing the "ABORTION" pin. She invited an "abortion patient advocate" as a guest for the address.
\u201cI say the word, I wear the word.\n\nAbortion care is health care.\n\nAbortion care saves lives.\u201d— Congresswoman Madeleine Dean (@Congresswoman Madeleine Dean) 1675802099
