World Athletics bans some transgender women from events
LeBron James has opened up the possibility of the LA Lakers visiting the White House in order to celebrate last year’s NBA championship – if only Covid-19 protocols would allow it.
It had become a tradition for the reigning champion to visit the US president in the season following its triumph, albeit one that’s taken a brief hiatus during Donald Trump’s time in office.
James’ Cleveland Cavaliers were the last team to fulfill the tradition when the players met Barack Obama in 2016 but the Golden State Warriors and Toronto Raptors both since declined invites to meet Trump.
In 2018, the Warriors decided instead to visit the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture in lieu of the traditional White House trip.
However, following the Lakers’ victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday, James said he would be happy to meet Joe Biden’s new administration but questioned whether current health and safety regulations would allow it.
The Lakers would have the possibility to visit the White House when it plays the Washington Wizards in the second half of the season.
“I don’t think we’ve had any conversation with our team,” James told reporters.
“I have no idea with all the Covid rules and restrictions and everything that’s going on with our league. I’m not even sure if we even are allowed to go.
“It would be great, but I have no idea what we can even do right now besides hotel, arena and home.”
