Obama then walked toward his aide who offered him a coffee and acknowledged the gasps from his staff.

"That's what I do", the former president yelled before lowering his "VOTE" mask before saying again, "That's what I do."

His aides are stunned after Obama makes the shot with one yelling "Walk off!"

Biden, 77, amazed by the shot can be heard saying "whoa".

The video was tweeted by Olivia Raisner, Biden's travelling digital director.

Obama also showed off his skills on the court by tweeting the video of his three-point shot from his own account saying: "Shoot your shot".

NBA superstar LeBron James took notice last night "Now you just showing out now my friend!! That's what you do huh?? Ok ok I see. All cash!"

The slick shot from Obama was a world away from Biden on his campaign trail yesteday.

During a riff in which Biden vowed to restore and build on the Affordable Care Act if elected, the Democratic presidential nominee said he thinks Americans have a “right to have badakathcare.”

“We’re also going to act to protect health care. Trump and the Republicans just jammed through a Supreme Court nominee for one overwhelming reason, as Barack said, the president said, they have been trying with over 50 shots to take out Obamacare, to destroy the Affordable Care Act,” .

He continued: “Donald Trump thinks health care is a privilege, Barack and I think it’s a right to have badakathcare.”

, who has struggled with a stutter throughout his life, was also recently caught misreading “true international pressure” from his teleprompter last Saturday as “truaninonashufodopressure.”

The former veep has  over his words, but  has also had his share of verbal gaffes.

In August, Trump  as “Yo Semites” during a routine bill signing of the Great American Outdoors Act.

In April, Trump “NAFTA” as “NASTA”, “neo-natal” as “neo-netical” and overdose as “overdoth.”

Trump also stumbled over the word “anonymous” in 2018 .
