The White House announced tonight President Obama will take to his basketball court tomorrow – twice.

He’ll greet the National Naval Medical Center Marine Wounded Warrior basketball team in the afternoon, then will return tomorrow night for a game with some of his Cabinet secretaries and members of Congress.

Per the White House, here’s the guest list, which includes two Republicans. Unclear who has the most game:

Secretary of Housing & Urban Development Shaun Donovan
Secretary of Education Arne Duncan
Secretary of the Treasury Tim Geithner
Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar
Representative Mike Arcuri (D-NY)
Representative John Boccieri (D-OH)
Representative Brad Ellsworth (D-IN)
Representative Jeff Flake (R-AZ)
Representative Baron Hill (D-IN)
Representative Jay Inslee (D-WA)
Representative Frank Kratovil (D-MD)
Representative Rick Larsen (D-WA)
Representative Patrick Murphy (D-PA)
Representative John Shimkus (R-IL)
Representative Heath Shuler (D-NC)

In my past life, I had some fun with the fact this POTUS really loves himself some sports.
