The vast majority of athletes are Democrats from memory the obvious ones of course, Lebron, Kerr, Popovich, Steph Curry, Kyrie Irving, Joe Burrow has been expousing some pretty progressive views on twitter lately as well.

Hence I specifically said baseball and football players.

Professional basketball has little purchase among white voters nowadays.
