LeBron James, Stephen Curry agree that next NBA champs won't visit White House
CLEVELAND -- In light of President Trump uninviting the 2018 Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles to the White House, LeBron James said neither his Cleveland Cavaliers nor the Golden State Warriors would accept a visit as a winner of the NBA Finals.
Trump rescinded the Eagles' invitation to the White House on Monday after learning that many of the players did not plan on attending. ESPN's Adam Schefter previously reported that "a large group of Eagles players had decided not to attend, including most -- if not all -- of the black players." The NFL Network reported that less than 10 players were expected to attend.
James was very vocal when the 2017 champion Warriors were uninvited to a possible trip to the White House by Trump. A three-time Finals MVP, James described Trump's rescinding of an invite to the Eagles as "typical of him."

"I gotta keep'em on my side - and being loathed by brown people (and lib'ruls) is a great way to do that. Believe me!"
