Brit pair Luol Deng and Ben Gordon met US President Barack Obama when the Chicago Bulls were in Washington to take on the Wizards.
The Bulls met their biggest fan at the White House the day before the game. Obama then watched his first NBA game as the new President, but it wasn't a good night for the Bulls as a poor performance saw them lose 113-90.
The Bulls were unable to draw inspiration from the President's pre-game talk as they lost the opening quarter 27-18.
Deng and Gordon both started with Deng shooting 2 for 8 to record four points and Gordon taking 11 points and five rebounds.
