Barack Obama is the only president with basketball skills but Bernie Sanders might give him a run for his money if he’s elected. Sanders clinched an impressive victory in the New Hampshire primary and celebrated by getting some shots up.
As the crowd at Concord High School in New Hampshire anxiously waited to hear Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders give his victory speech Tuesday night, the Vermont senator was warming up—on a basketball court.
Sanders celebrated his victory by shooting hoops with his sons and grandkids.

During a CNN Democratic town hall in January, Sanders said growing up he considered himself a “very good athlete.” His Brooklyn elementary school basketball team even won the borough championship, he said.
