Warriors to skip White House visit
Tue Jun 13, 2017 11:39 am
The Golden State Warriors won their second championship in the past three seasons Monday night, but this time it doesn't look like they'll travel to the White House to meet the President of the United States.
According to Josh Brown of CNBC's The Halftime Report, the Warriors decided unanimously to skip the traditional championship visit to Washington due to the highly controversial nature of President Donald Trump.
The Warriors will be the first team to boycott a visit to the White House following a championship. After the New England Patriots won the Super Bowl earlier this year, some members of the team skipped the visit, but the likes of head coach Bill Belichick, owner Robert Kraft, tight end Rob Gronkowski and others still attended.
