King James was with the rest of his Heat teammates who were accepting ceremonious congrats from President Obama for winning their second consecutive NBA championship last June.
Perhaps the efforts trying to get his “side game” underway is the reason the Heat were blown out later that night against the woeful Washington Wizards, 114-97, in a game where the Heat trailed by as much as 30 points in the first half.
NBC associate producer Stacey Klein Instagramed this note:
After the post made the rounds in Washington and first lady Michelle Obama tweeted out a cutesy picture of James helping her promote health eating, Klein did a little editing too: “The HEAT at the WH today. Team presented a “POTUS” jersey to the head honcho.”
James married his longtime girlfriend Savannah Brinson, in San Diego, Calif., on Sept. 14, 2013, and from indications in the media, is still in the honeymoon phase.
