LeBron James to visit White House, celebrate Lakers' title once Joe Biden is president

By Erin Walsh | Last updated 11/8/20

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James has some serious beef with President Donald Trump, and he doesn't plan on celebrating his squad's NBA title win until President-elect Joe Biden is in office.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green tweeted to James on Saturday saying he can go to the White House and celebrate the championship now that Trump is on his way out of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

James had a predictable response, too, saying he'll bring his tequila to celebrate.

YO we back up in there my G!!! I’m taking my tequila and vino too!

No NBA team has celebrated a title since Trump took office in January 2017. The Golden State Warriors and Toronto Raptors each opted to avoid the White House, and the Lakers planned to do the same if Trump remained in office. In fact, instead of celebrating with Trump, the Warriors had a private celebration with former President Barack Obama in 2017.

One thing is certain: When the Lakers visit the White House, they won't be served Wendy's and McDonald's on silver platters.
