Gavin Newsom is the latest to find out that plans for a confident jump shot can turn into a torrent of online potshots.
On a trip to China, the two-term Democrat took a detour from his official meetings on climate change to join a group of Beijing schoolkids for a game of basketball.
Video circulating online shows Newsom wearing slacks, an open-collared shirt and dress shoes while towering over schoolchildren on the court.
The governor playfully twirls a basketball on a fingertip, then executes a spin move as he heads toward the basket.
“Newsom destroys kid during basketball game in China,” celebrity website TMZ tweeted.
