In what seemed to be a covert operation, a group of basketball professionals were secretly invited to the White House to challenge the President in a friendly game of dribbles/basketball.
Among the invited guests were Miami Heat player Dwayne Wade, Former Miami Heat player, Alonzo Mourning, Kobe Bryant and others.
Dwayne Wade who played on the President’s team helped to secure a victory for the Commander-in-Chief.
Here is what Wade told Daedrian McNaughton of Premier Guide Miami of his White House experience.
Dwayne Wade on White House visit:
PGM: How excited were you to be invited to the White House?
Dwayne Wade: I was very excited. Anytime you get an opportunity to be invited to the White House and it’s not just for winning a championship, it’s a personal invite. It is really special; especially when you get invited period.
It was really special to get that personal invite. I had an unbelieveable time there. I had the chance to be around a lot of great people; just enjoy the experience. It will stay with me for a lifetime.
Hopefully many more people get the opportunity to experience it. Alonzo Mourning and I represented the Miami Heat in a great way.
On the President’s game:
PGM: Was he a good player?
Dwayne Wade: He is actually good; he is pretty good.
