At many sporting events around the world, athletes are strictly forbidden from making political statements about themselves – just think of the Fifa World Cup. The Big 3 basketball tournament is more relaxed. Ex-NBA professional Royce White took the opportunity to make a statement about Donald Trump.

Former NBA player Royce White has never avoided a confrontation. Even during his playing days, White loved making controversial statements. Playing with provocation has always been his.

That’s exactly what he did again last weekend at the Big 3 basketball tournament. White used this 3-on-3 tournament, where many ex-NBA professionals compete, as his own small political stage.

The man who once refused to fly to games with his team, instead suggesting they take the bus to away games in the NBA, let viewers at the Big 3 know that he voted Donald Trump for the actual winner of the US Presidential election 2020 holds. Written on White’s head was “Trump won.”
