UPDATE,[EP05] Lovely Ladies Dormitory Wednesday Dec. 7, 2016 (1:50 p.m. ET): Speaking to the AP, James denied his decision to stay elsewhere was a political statement but rather a personal preference. "It would be the same if I went to a restaurant and decided to eat chicken and not steak," James said.

Several Cavs players have been critical of Trump since the election, including Iman Shumpert who told Complexhe'd refuse to go to the White House for the traditional champions' visit if the Cavs won during Trump's presidency.
The group of Cavs players will join three other teams -- the Milwaukee Bucks, Memphis Grizzlies and Dallas Mavericks -- who are currently boycotting Trump hotels on road trips.
