President Obama played a pickup game with several pro basketball stars at Fort McNair on Sunday, surrounded by an audience of wounded veterans and participants in a White House mentoring program, reported the Washington Post.
The dream team consisted of LeBron James, Earvin “Magic” Johnson, Grant Hill, Shane Battier, Carmelo Anthony, Chauncey Billups, Derek Fisher, Alonzo Mourning, Chris Paul, Derrick Rose, Bill Russell, Etan Thomas, Dwyane Wade, David West, and Maya Moore, a female college basketball player from the University of Connecticut Huskies.
Kobe Bryant of the LA Lakers was also present at the game, but did not play.
The game, which was closed to the media, was part of Obama’s birthday celebrations this past weekend, according to Washington D.C. publication The Hill. On Saturday, the president played a round of golf at the Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland.
