President Donald Trump irked a decent portion of the NBA this morning when he withdrew a White House invitation from Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry, expressing disapproval in the hesitation shown by the All-Star point guard.
Going to the White House is considered a great honor for a championship team.Stephen Curry is hesitating,therefore invitation is withdrawn!

Curry has previously expressed disdain for the president before, saying he was an asset "if you remove the 'et' from asset."
Plenty of prominent NBA players commented on the situation, from Cleveland Cavaliers superstar LeBron James to Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul and others.
