The Las Vegas Aces will not visit the White House following their 2025 WNBA title win in October, as confirmed by a team spokesperson. This marks the second consecutive year that the WNBA champions have not been included in such celebrations. The Aces had previously considered an alternate visit to the National Museum of African American History and Culture but will forgo that due to scheduling conflicts with their game against the Washington Mystics on July 22. The Aces' title win continues a trend of missed visits under the current and previous presidential administrations, as they had to wait months for an invitation to celebrate their 2022 championship.
