From Michael Lee’s story in the Washington Post on John Wall’s workout for the Washington Wizards today:
But the highlight of Wall’s session with the media was a challenge directed at President Obama for a game of one-on-one and/or horse, preferably at the White House. Wall met the president last year and issued a similar challenge, but Wall said he was politely rebuffed.
“Hopefully I’ll get picked by the Wizards,” Wall said, “and if I do, yeah I want [Obama] to come to the games, but before that, I want to play him in that game of horse. I challenged him to a game of one-on-one and horse, but as the president, I guess he backed down. He didn’t want to play, so I’ll convince him into that first and then invite him to some games.”
