Stephen Curry offered his support to Kamala Harris at the Democratic National Convention on Thursday.
The Warriors superstar and shooter for the gold medal-winning U.S. team cheered on the vice president and Democratic nominee in a video released during an event Thursday night in Chicago.
“It was an incredible honor to win a gold medal representing Team USA at the Olympics this summer. Our unity on and off the court reminded us that together we can do anything and continue to inspire the world,” Curry said. “That’s why I have confidence that President Kamala will bring us back together and continue to lead our country forward.”
“This is about maintaining hope and faith in our country and making sure families are taken care of at a time when it matters most. Last year, my team and I visited Kamala at the White House, and one thing we knew then and know now for sure: the Oval Office would look good on her. So, in the words of Michelle Obama, do something. Go vote. Be active. And let’s get to the polls in November more than ever before.”
“For me, it’s an honor to represent this country and it’s an honor to root for Kamala so let’s all do our part and God bless.”
Curry wore his latest gold medal, awarded to him for scoring a game-high 24 points in a 98-87 victory over France, and showed it off at the start of the video.
The video later showed Harris meeting with the U.S. national team and Curry shaking hands with President Joe Biden during the Warriors’ visit to the White House after winning the 2022 championship.
He is the second senior member of the Warriors to publicly support Harris, with head coach Steve Kerr speaking in support of the candidate on Monday.
“Once the results are counted (on election night), we can, in the words of the great Stephen Curry, say goodnight to Donald Trump,” Kerr said.
