The 135th Annual Easter Egg Roll at the White House this year featured President Barack Obama in one of his less than spectacular moments on the basketball court.
President Obama and family were visited by a group of kids, along with members of the Washington Wizards, to shoot some hoops on the basketball court on the White House lawn.
According to the Washington Post, members of the Wizards who were in attendance were John Wall, Bradley Beal, Nene and Emeka Okafor, all of whom who watched the president badly miss a series of jumpers.
"He missed a lot in a row. We told him move in a little bit. Then he ended up missing a layup and it got out of control," Beal said. "He has a few excuses he could use. I think he was warming up to at least sprinkle one in. I don't know."
The president shot so poorly that Wall couldn't help himself but to share a few jokes all while offering some helpful tips and advice.
"I told him 'I'm on a hot stretch this month,' " Wall said. "I said you was shooting like I was shooting the first month I came back. He kept saying I'm going to leave for like five minutes, 10 minutes. He didn't leave until he made one."
Wall is still pushing for Obama to attend a Wizards game, something that he's been campaigning since he was taken first overall in 2010. Obama did plan to attend a Wizards-Heat game in 2010 but had to back out.
"I asked him again, he said he'll let me know," Wall said. "I think we got to make the playoffs first, but it might pop up with the Bulls coming" on Tuesday at Verizon Center.
