NBA Champions Milwaukee Bucks to celebrate NBA title at White House on 8th of November- It has been a tradition for the NBA champions to visit the White House and celebrate their title with the President of the USA. However, this tradition was stopped when Donald Trump was the President. The last NBA champions to visit the White House were LeBron James’ Cleveland Cavaliers.
However, the 2020-21 NBA Champions Milwaukee Bucks are scheduled to make a trip to the White House, according to ESPN.
“We’re very excited, very appreciative of the invite,” Bucks coach Mike Budenholzer said Saturday. “We know it’s an honor and special, and we’re looking forward to visiting the White House.”
The Bucks won the title by beating the Phoenix Suns in six games in the NBA Finals, concluding with a Game 6 victory in Milwaukee on July 20 when Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 50 points.

The 2019-20 Champions LA Lakers did not make the trip this past year due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the travel restrictions that came with it.
When asked last season about visiting the White House, LeBron James told reporters, “It would be great, but I have no idea what we can even do right now besides hotel, arena, and home.”
