The President of the United States of America Joe Biden joked about the size of the NBA Championship rings as the Golden State Warriors recently visited the White House.
The Golden State Warriors squad and head coach recently visited the White House as they were invited by the Vice President of the United States of America in Kamala Harris. The defending champions of the NBA were invited to the residence of the President of the United States of America for the first time since 2016, in order to celebrate their NBA Championship win.
Harris invited her hometown side back to the White House for the first time in seven years, and the Warriors squad as well as the head coach Steve Kerr along with the backroom staff visited the residence of the President. Stephen Curry and his teammates were met there by President Joe Biden who addressed the audience and lauded the Warriors for their contributions to society.
The President commended Kerr and his players for their support of voting rights and stances against racism and gun violence. Curry later spoke of the team’s connection to Biden, drawing a line between its roots in Philadelphia and the President’s origins in Scranton. He presented the President and Vice President with jerseys, giving Biden a No. 46 and Harris a No. 1 jersey.
However, the interaction between Biden and the players that went viral on social media platforms was when Biden made a hilarious quip about the NBA Championship rings.
The President Biden came up with a hilarious comment about the NBA Championship rings carried by the Warriors that went viral on social media.
While addressing the audience with the Warriors in the backdrop, Biden chose to comment about the size of the NBA Championship rings that the players were wearing at the moment. Biden asked the audience: “Y’all see the size of those rings? He had to walk around like this” while imitating an old man carrying a heavy load in order to describe Warriors head coach Kerr.
The Warriors became only the second NBA championship team to visit the White House since President Donald Trump left office in January 2021. That November, the Milwaukee Bucks visited four months after winning the title; they were the first NBA champions to do so since November 2016, when the Cleveland Cavaliers celebrated with then President Barack Obama.
