Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert said he received racist voicemails after LeBron James took to social media last weekend to call President Donald Trump a "bum" in response to Trump uninviting the Golden State Warriors to the White House.

Gilbert said James' tweet prompted his phone to be flooded with racist messages.

"I received voicemails after LeBron tweeted that were some of the most vile, disgusting, racist (messages)," Gilbert said on CNBC's "Squawk Box." "There's an element of racism that I didn't even realize existed in this country this much."

James criticized Trump last Saturday after the president tweeted in response to stars Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry saying they did not want to visit the White House to celebrate their 2017 NBA championship. (Editing by Gene Cherry)
