Sports Illustrated's latest cover features 10 top figures from the sports world linking arms above the headline "A nation divided, sports united."
The magazine's Oct. 2 edition focuses on political protests across the sports world, which reached a fever pitch over the weekend after President Trump lobbed attacks at NFL players who kneel during the national anthem.
The cover features NBA stars LeBron James and Stephen Curry, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, NFL team owner Shahid Khan, WNBA player Candace Parker and other athletes who have spoken up about politics.
