And it's obvious he's still proud for his backyard victory over Lynx star Maya Moore so many years ago.

Obama went on to call the team "a juggernaut" and said he was looking forward to yet another White House visit from the squad.
The president also needled Moore a bit, reminding her that he beat her in a game of HORSE at the White House in 2009, when she joined her fellow Connecticut Huskies at a White House title celebration.
"Yes, it is still my deepest regret," she said.
