President Joe Biden welcomed the Golden State Warriors to the White House Tuesday afternoon to honor them for their 2022 NBA title.
WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden welcomed the Golden State Warriors and their families to the White House Tuesday afternoon to honor them for their 2022 NBA title.
Vice President Kamala Harris, an Oakland native, was the opening speaker and discussed her “beloved” Warriors, recalling a time where once hopped on BART to make sure she wasn’t late to get to a Warriors game. She was presented with another custom jersey — this one a No. 1, as she previously was gifted a No. 49 jersey from the team upon becoming the 49th vice president.
“It’s a big part of our basketball family and it means a lot to know that she’s here and home safe with her family and all the work behind the scenes to make that a reality,” Curry said. “I just want to say thank you there.”
