Though the Brooklyn Nets haven’t seen their first victory of the year, they shouldn’t give up hope — yet. On Monday, former President Bill Clinton visited the Barclays Center to attend a Brooklyn Nets game and meet longtime friend and Bucks owner, Marc Lasry. He has been a longtime fan, and this wasn’t the first time he attended a Nets game. An Arkansas native, Bill has some connections to Joe Johnson, who was born and raised in Little Rock. However, Johnson isn’t the only Nets player Bill has a tie to.
In fact, during an NBA community event this past summer, Brook Lopez went to Africa along with Bill Clinton and former WNBA star Dawn Staley.
