Delaware Basketball Star Elena Delle Donne Shares Special Note From Former Vice President Joe Biden

Nike donated a pair of sneakers to every baby born at Christiana Hospital in Delaware on Saturday in honor of WNBA superstar Elena Delle Donne and the U.S. Women’s Basketball team winning gold at the Olympics. NBC10’s Tim Furlong has the details.

Former Vice President Joe Biden is looking forward to watching former Delaware star and 2015 WNBA MVP Elena Delle Donne play for the Washington Mystics.

Delle Donne tweeted a photo Tuesday of a letter Biden sent congratulating her on her recent move to the Mystics. He says he's looking forward to watching her play in Washington. He jokes that Washington is a great city, but the best part is that "it's only a short train ride from our home state of Delaware." Below the typed message Biden writes that he's proud of Delle Donne — "both your skill and your courage." [[415700173, C]]

Delle Donne thanks Biden for his note and says they'd love to have him come to a Mystics game.
