Donald Trump offered his take on LeBron James' blockbuster move to the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday after a reporter asked the president to weigh in on the perennial debate over whether James or Michael Jordan is the NBA's greatest player.
"Well, Michael Jordan is a guy who is a friend of mine, play golf with him. He's a really good guy," Trump said during a Friday press conference in the Oval Office, before pivoting to a bizarre aside about James.

"And I think LeBron is, maybe he's a racist, but maybe he doesn't like Trump, I don't know. But I only like people that like me," the president added. "So, I would say Michael Jordan all the way."

James was in the news Friday after he announced that he had chosen to join the Philadelphia 76ers following his exit from the Los Angeles Lakers after eight seasons.
"I thought I was done when the season ended. I wasn't ready to announce it, and I knew I needed some time to really decide, but I was pretty sure I played my last game," James wrote in a Friday X post. "I was honest at that last press conference when I said I needed to look at myself and decide if I still love this game. I still truly love this game, and I have more to give."
