Report: Lakers Hope to Visit White House Once President-Elect Joe Biden Takes Office

The Lakers are looking to resume the post-championship tradition of visiting the White House at some point during the current NBA season and once President-elect Joe Biden takes office, according to Yahoo Sports' Chris Haynes.

Biden's electoral victory over President Donald Trump was confirmed early Thursday morning, just hours after thousands of domestic terrorists swarmed the Capitol building in Washington, D.C.

Biden is set to be sworn in as the 46th President of the United States on Jan. 20.

According to Yahoo Sports, the logistics of the visit remain unclear. Los Angeles' schedule and White House COVID-19 protocols are both determining factors in a possible visit.
