President Joe Biden called Candace Parker a 'coach' during the Aces' White House visit Thursday.
Jaden Smith Wipes Out During Skateboard Ride with BodyguardThe flub happened as Biden was hosting Parker's Las Vegas Aces at the White House to celebrate their 2023 championship.Speaking to a crowd that had assembled inside of a room at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Biden tried to praise Parker, who couldn't make the ceremony, but he misspoke.
"While she couldn't be here," he said of the newly retired Ace,"I want to acknowledge someone who we consider one of the greatest all-time coaches -- Candace Parker." Parker, of course, played forward/center throughout her illustrious career ... but never coached a game.But, no one stepped in to correct No. 46 -- and he continued to shovel compliments on Parker ... this time in at least a more factual way.The rest of the event went on without a hitch -- Biden went on to receive a customized Aces jersey and good times seemed to be had by all -- but it's now the second time in the last few weeks that POTUS has caught some heat for his behavior on a mic.
