Superstar Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors and his coach, Steve Kerr, formally endorsed Democratic nominee Kamala Harris for the position of next US president.
At the conclusion of the Democratic National Convention at the United Center in Chicago, Curry made an unexpected video appearance and threw her complete support to Harris’ presidential campaign.
Curry, still glowing with pride from their gold medal victory in the 2024 Olympics in Paris, asked voters to support Harris because he thinks she is the president who can bring the country together.
Curry, sporting his Olympic gold medal, remarked, “It was a great honor to represent Team USA and go out there and win that gold medal in the Olympics this summer.” We were all reminded by that unity both on and off the court that when we work together, we can do anything and keep inspiring the world. Because of this, I think Kamala would be a good president and could keep us moving forward and restore that unity.
When Kerr entered the platform at the Democratic National Convention on August 19, he declared that “it was too important as an American citizen not to speak up in an election of this magnitude,” notwithstanding the’shut up and whistle’ tweets.
To end his remarks, Kerr cited Curry’s “Night Night” celebration.
“We can tell Donald Trump, ‘Night Night,'” in the words of the legendary Steph Curry, once the results are in.
Shared Beliefs and Bay Area Ties Unite Kamala Harris and Steph Curry
Curry freely backed the former California Attorney General prior to Team USA’s opening training camp in Las Vegas, where Harris paid them a visit.
During a press conference on July 25, in Paris for the 2024 Olympics, Curry told reporters, “Interesting times in our country right now.” “Hopefully, we’ll win the election with her on the ticket. To put it mildly, this is significant.
One month after his withdrawal from the race and her endorsement as the Democratic nominee in lieu of incumbent President Joe Biden, Harris formally accepted her candidacy.
Curry spoke to Harris as “She represents the Bay Area.” She has been a huge advocate for us, therefore I would like to return the favor. We are here to represent our country, and the next few months will be crucial to the path we want to take. Hopefully, this is a fantastic way for us to contribute to the ongoing process of national unification that sports foster.
Given how divided our nation is at the present, she believes that optimism and positive energy are the most important things she can focus on in the here and now. I’m merely eager for her to go on her journey.
When the Warriors visited the White House following their 2022 NBA victory, Curry gave Harris a Warriors jersey.
Kamala Harris Has Always Loved the Warriors
Harris, who was born and raised in Oakland, has always been a fan of the Warriors, and she has talked openly about it.
Vice President Kamala Harris declared in 2023, “I have been a Warriors fan all my life.” For me and so many others, this team has been a continual source of happiness and pride. Together with our gathered family, Doug and I, the nation’s first and second gentlemen, have observed this squad both live and on television.
Harris went on to say that in order to get to a Warriors playoff game, she got out of her car while they were stopped in traffic and took public transportation.
Harris went on, “I remember this one playoff game at Oracle in Oakland very well. We were stranded in traffic at a standstill while traveling to the game. Our concern was that we would miss the tipoff. At that moment, I held the position of Attorney General of California, and much to the dismay of my security detail, I made the decision to forgo driving and instead use BART. I boarded a crowded train with the other supporters, arrived at the game on schedule, and the Warriors did indeed win. It was a beautiful day, and I even saw my spouse, who loves the Lakers, supporting them.
