Trump pulls White House invitation from Golden State Warriors after Curry said he opposed accepting it


Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry. (Sue Ogrocki / Associated Press)President Trump on Saturday withdrew his invitation to the NBA champion Golden State Warriors to visit the White House, blaming the team's star, Stephen Curry, for "hesitating" about accepting the offer. Trump's move appeared preemptory as the team was expected to vote to decline the traditional White House offer extended to sports champions after Curry said Friday he would oppose a visit. Warriors coach Steve Kerr also has said he'd prefer not to attend a White House event with Trump. "Going to the White House was a great honor until you showed up!"
