The U.S. women's hockey team will celebrate their Olympic gold medal with rapper Flavor Flav in Las Vegas this July. The gold medalist athletes have accepted Flav's invitation to a 'She Got Game' weekend event from July 16-19 at MGM Resorts, honoring their victory over Canada in the Milan Cortina Games.

Flav, a longtime supporter of women's sports who attended multiple Olympic events, extended the invitation after the team declined President Trump's White House visit following their overtime win. The team faced scheduling challenges returning from Italy, with players immediately rejoining their Professional Women's Hockey League and college teams across the country.

While the entire 23-player roster's attendance remains uncertain due to potential conflicts, the celebration marks a significant moment for women's hockey. The team's decision to decline the White House invitation sparked controversy, with captain Hilary Knight calling Trump's comments 'distasteful and unfortunate.' The gold medal victory, achieved with a 2-1 overtime win against Canada, represents the team's continued dominance in international competition.
