The cold open to Wednesday's broadcast of the ESPY awards featured an appeal from friends Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, and Chris Paul. Continuing on the theme of Anthony's plea for social change, the four spoke on the need to end the violence plaguing America.
"Let's use this moment as a call to action for all professional athletes," James said.
