They are in the White House, as planned, at this time Giannis, Thanasis Antetokounbo and the Bucks as a whole, in order to be honored by the American president, Joe Biden, to win the championship last year!
Four months after triumphant to win the title, the “deer” have traveled since yesterday (7/11) in the American capital for the match with the Wizards, from whom they lost, we remind, 101-94, and on the occasion today give the “present” to the American residence.
The NBA, in fact, has uploaded a video from the arrival of Giannis in the White House, with him saying characteristically: “From Sepolia to the oval office, it ‘s unbelievable, really unbelievable, that I am here and I will meet the American president. I am grateful for this occasion, it is a magical experience and I hope he sets an example for the rest of the world that he can make his dreams come true»!
Note that last visit team in the White House dates back to 2016, when the champions Cleveland Cavaliers were there, during the presidency of Barack Obama!
Since then, no other team has celebrated the conquest of the championship (2017-2020), ie during the days of Donald Trump. Now, the NBA champion’s standard visit to the current US president is back, with the Bucks making a fresh start.
