Youngkin replied with a GIF of him from a campaign video in which he drained a three-pointer.
"Game on!" Youngkin wrote in his tweet.
The proposal comes after several formal pitches were made to the General Services Administration, as both governors are hoping to have the FBI headquarters in their respective states.
Youngkin, who is 6'7" tall, played four years of basketball at Rice University from 1985 to 1989, averaging 1.4 points and 1.2 rebounds in 58 games.
