Is President Barack Obama Looking to Become an NBA Owner?
The White House seems to think so.
President Barack Obama will surely have a vast number of career options once his time in the White House is up. A well-known basketball fanatic, ESPN reports that the Chicago native has previously discussed being part of an ownership group, ideally in Chicago, according to White House press secretary Josh Earnest, and that he would pursue the opportunity “potentially … under the right circumstances.”
Obama previously expressed interest in becoming involved with an NBA franchise during an interview with GQ, stating he has “fantasized about being able to put together a team and how much fun that would be.” With the Bulls looking to shake up their roster having just traded Derrick Rose, could a new-look ownership with Barack Obama bring their franchise back to the glory days?
