Paul Pierce tells TMZ Sports he had to pack his things and leave his Calabasas home behind … saying the California wildfires were getting too close for comfort. The retired NBA superstar was leaving Mastro’s in Beverly Hills on Saturday night … when he told us he had spent the day evacuating due to the massive wildfires that have forced more than 250,000 people to leave their homes behind. At least 177 homes have been destroyed in SoCal by the fires … and a ton of celebs and athletes have been affected — including Miley Cyrus, Liam Hemsworth and Gerard Butler, who all lost their Malibu homes.
Paul Pierce is glad Villanova is refusing to visit Trump’s White House to celebrate their NCAA basketball title … saying the tradition is dumb and overrated. Nova’s coach Jay Wright, announced Thursday the team would not visit 1600 Pennsylvania this year — as NCAA winning teams have traditionally done for years. In fact, Villanova visited Obama’s White House after winning the title 2016 — but Wright explained, “Two years ago it was the experience of a lifetime for all of us. It’s just a different time.”
“I don’t know why we go to the White House,” Pierce said … “Why did people even start going there?” BTW … when Pierce went to the White House a decade ago — he called it “truly an honor” and even brought gifts for No. 43.
Darius Miles: I’ll never forget, Paul Pierce came up to me after our second year in the league. Now, Paul is a real dude. He’s from Inglewood. He was like, “Man, lemme tell you something. I don’t got nobody’s jersey in the league. I don’t get down like that. But I got your jersey. I like you guys.” That was the ultimate respect, for us. We got put on the worst team in the league, with the weirdest owner in the world, practicing in a damn JUCO in South Central. But if you were anybody in Los Angeles back then, you want to rock the red, white and blue.
