(WHDH) — Sports Illustrated addressed the National Anthem controversy with its new cover.

The cover features Cleveland Cavaliers’ Lebron James, Golden State Warriors’ Stephen Curry and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell among a handful of other sports stars all linking arms.

The headline: A Nation Divided – Sports United.

President Donald Trump has weighed in repeatedly to say that players should stand for the anthem or be fired for their defiance.
