Roger Mason Jr. on LeBron: "He Ain't Playing if Sterling is Still an Owner" - Jim Rome on Showtime.........UPDATE Roger Mason Jr Retracts Statement

USA Today – Don’t be surprised if Miami Heat star LeBron James distances himself from comments made by former teammate Roger Mason, who indicated in a TV interview that James would lead a boycott if Donald Sterling still owned the Los Angeles Clippers at the start of the 2014-15 season.

Mason, the National Basketball Players Association first vice president, told Showtime’s Jim Rome, “If it’s not handled by … the start of next season, I don’t see how we’re playing basketball. I was just in the locker room with LeBron. At the end of the day, you know we have leaders, we have player reps, we’ve got executive committee members. … Leaders of the teams, they’re all saying the same thing: ‘If this man is still in place, we ain’t playing.’ “
