Michael Jordan, Kamala Harris and Stephen Curry

Stephen Curry has been very vocal about his views such that he recently clarified his political stance by endorsing Kamala Harris‘s presidency for the upcoming elections. In an interview with Bloomberg’s Emily Chang, Curry explained his decision to publicly support Harris and expressed frustration with the backlash often accompanying political endorsements.

While doing so, Steph Curry also acknowledged Michael Jordan‘s well-known comment “Republicans buy sneakers too.” The Baby-faced Assassin with a smirk acknowledged MJ’s long-standing reluctance to publicly engage in political matters.

I approach everything with decency and humanity. It's not like I'm out here casting flames at the other side. It's just, this is what I believe in, whether you agree with me or not. Like you want to be able to foster positive conversations and you want to be able to have an intelligent conversation about what's actually happening.
Stephen Curry said

The Warriors’ star then emphasized how he loves expressing political views that often lead to negative reactions, but also believes it’s important to stay true to one’s convictions. He argued that, while not everyone will agree with his perspective, mutual respect and understanding should guide political discussions.

There’s a general feeling that due to him living in California and having a personal connection to Harris, who hails from San Francisco, Chef Curry’s endorsement aligns with his support for local and national figures he believes in.

Stephen Curry enjoying break as he relaxes with wife Ayesha after a big summer

Stephen Curry has had an incredible summer, where he led Team USA to a gold medal in the 2024 Summer Games in Paris and then signed a massive one-year extension with the Warriors. He’s been celebrating with his teammates and enjoying some well-deserved rest and relaxation with his wife Ayesha.

The two have been spotted sipping wine and enjoying each other’s company, and they even took a romantic getaway to France.

Curry’s impressive performance in the Summer Games and his new contract have capped off an amazing season, where he averaged 26.4 points, 5.1 assists, and 4.5 rebounds per game. Now, he’s proven himself to be one of the best players in the league, and he’s got the hardware to show for it.

With the new season approaching, Curry will be back to leading the Warriors in no time, but for now, he’s soaking up the sun and enjoying quality time with Ayesha. This would be a season he would be playing with Klay Thompson, who joined rivals, the Dallas Mavericks.
