The Miami Heat paid a visit to the White House to have a meet-and-greet with President Barack Obama.

It’s just one of the perks for winning the 2012 NBA championship. The Heat was joined by owner Micky Arison and the coaching staff while Obama honor the organization. The Heat presented the President with his own jersey with the number 44.

During Obama’s speech he singled out Lebron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh for being outstanding examples in the push for active and involved fathers. He even brought up Wade’s fashion by saying “check out the shoes.”

James couldn’t contain his excitement. He said, “mama I made it.” Check out a few photos and video from their visit below.
