The offer hasn’t even been sent, but Kevin Durant is rejecting it anyway.
“Nah, I won’t do that,” Kevin Durant, the 2017 NBA Finals MVP, said about the possibility of visiting the White House. “I don’t respect who’s in office right now.”
Durant told ESPN on Thursday that he would stay away from President Donald Trump, skipping the traditional White House visit that so many championship teams have taken. The team is scheduled to visit Washington on Feb. 28 to take on the Wizards, and if the White House asks Golden State to stop by, Durant will be absent.
“I don’t agree with what [Trump] agrees with, so my voice is going to be heard by not doing that,” said Durant, a Maryland native. “That’s just me personally, but if I know my guys well enough, they’ll all agree with me.”

Fine. Cancel it.
Don't hold your breath....................
The media will make a big deal of this, but I bet that Trump won’t miss him or any other person who is stupid enough to believe Leftist arguments.
President Trump is crushed...
Steve Kerr's dad was assassinated by muslims when he was teaching in Beirut, but he unwittingly criticized the Trump travel ban. Steve never got the hint that they want to come over here and finish the job on the rest of us infidels.
Wow - and after all Durant has done for his country, too. Uh...what exactly was that, anyway? Oh. He bounces a rubber ball. Marvelous.
I am also an ex-Warriors fan. Little Stevie treated David Lee like dirt and all Lee did was save their 2015 championship season. I want whatever team DLee is on to do well. Then I will quit watching the NBA. I cannot stand the Warriors or the Knicks and the NBA’s politics anymore.
I don’t respect who’s in the NBA right now. They may lose as many eyeballs as the NFL.
Curry's shoe sales are in the tank but unfortunately his jersey sales are strong.
Yeah. What makes him think that they’re invited in the first place?
I have quit watching the NBA and the NFL for that matter.
Why are we still talking about this? Didnt they win a couple months ago and no invitation was ever sent? He’s not inviting you, so all the ghetto rats can go back to their baby mamas and shut the f up.
Exactly what does Donald Trump need Golden State Warriors for?
Answer: Nothing. Golden State is totally irrelevant as far as Trump’s reelection or anything else Trump needs to do in office is concerned.
If a tree falls in the forest. . . . . time for more people to boycott watching these goofballs play ball.
Trump should invite some brave soldiers and police officers to the White House...instead of guys that can dribble in their shorts.
I have retroactively started not watching the NBA for the past 30 years.
