Barack and Michelle Obama took in the excitement of NBA All-Star Weekend with their daughter Sasha by their side.
The trio, missing their oldest daughter Malia Obama, 27, were spotted enjoying the game from courtside seats at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California, as shared in a recent Instagram update by the former presidential couple.
Michelle, 62, chose a stylish black jacket paired with dark navy-blue pants, while Barack complemented her look in a dark blue jacket layered over a black T-shirt and casual gray jeans.
Sasha, 24, sat just behind her parents, matching her father’s style with a chic gray ensemble.
The couple affectionately captioned their photo, “My favorite teammates on and off the court.”
In another photo taken at the event, Barack and Michelle posed for pictures with NBA star Stephen Curry and his wife, Ayesha.
The couple’s daughters typically stay out of the spotlight aside from the occasional public sighting with their family.
However, their mother has shared intimate details of their lives on her “IMO” podcast, which she co-hosts with her brother, Craig Robinson.
In August, Michelle revealed that Barack, 64, found his youngest daughter to be more “difficult” when it came to parenting.
“I’d say this to Barack, when it comes to, you know, [our] oldest, Malia, she is going to figure out who you are, what do you like and let’s discuss it,” Michelle said at the time, adding that it was an “unusual” characteristic for a teen.
“When Malia was a teenager, it wasn’t that she was going out any less or doing anything differently,” Michelle said. “She would tell me, ‘I’m going out this weekend, but I’m going to go in and give dad like 15 minutes.’”
But unlike Malia, Michelle compared Sasha to “a cat.”
“She’s like, ‘Don’t touch me, don’t pet me. I’m not pleasing you. You come to me,” Michelle explained. She added that Barack called Sasha “difficult,” which, in turn, prompted Michelle to explain that their youngest was just not a people “pleaser” like their eldest.
Michelle added that parents “have to be a chameleon” and adjust to different temperaments.
