Former President Barack Obama Among Virtual Fans at NBA Finals

Barack Obama among virtual fans at NBA Finals originally appeared on NBC Sports Washington

The stars were out at Game 1 of the NBA Finals. Well, sort of.

They were all part of a virtual crowd, as no fans were actually allowed at the game, which was held in the league's Orlando bubble.

NBA legends like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Clyde Drexler and Shaquille O'Neal were 'in attendance.' And so was former President Barack Obama.

Here's how he looked:

Obama is a famous hoops fan who usually roots for the Chicago Bulls, It's unclear who he is pulling for in this series between the Heat and Lakers.

Obama also attended a Finals game last year between the Warriors and Raptors, and he was actually there in-person. Maybe he can make a tradition out of it.
