Despite adding two more titles and a dynastic legacy, the team refused to visit the White House during President Donald Trump’s reign. However, with the new President in office and as the defending champions, the Warriors are heading back to 1600 Pennsylvania avenue.
Congrats to the Golden State @Warriors on yet another NBA title and to Finals MVP @StephenCurry30 for another legendary performance. Grit. Heart. Strength in numbers. That’s America.

On Tuesday afternoon, the reigning Finals MVP and the defending champions, the Golden State Warriors, were invited to visit the White House. The last time they were there, they had beaten LeBron James and the Cavaliers to mark the first championship of their dynasty. However, that visit came during the 44th POTUS Barack Obama’s term. But when Donald Trump took office, Curry and the Warriors declined the invitations despite adding another 2x titles to their names.

Fast forward to today, and with a new POTUS in office, the 2x MVP and his team are back in the White House. Standing on a podium for the press briefing, Curry said, “Thank you President Biden, Vice President Harris, for the invitation to come here. It’s something that we don’t ever take for granted. Seven years ago, I believe, we were here last celebrating our first championship, and now back to celebrating our fourth. So to have the opportunity to reflect on accomplishments of last year, to bring everybody together, celebrate that, to also acknowledge the play sports has to bring people together from all walks of life.”
