In a surprising turn of events at the U.S. men's basketball opening news conference at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Golden State Warriors guard Steph Curry expressed his intention to support American vice president Kamala Harris in the upcoming 2024 election. Curry, known as the greatest shooter in NBA history, had a long-lasting friendship with Harris prior to President Joe Biden's announcement of endorsing her as the presumptive Democratic nominee.

As a dedicated Warriors fan and Oakland native, Harris has often shared her love for the team, which she considers a source of joy and pride. Curry, aware of Harris' connection to the Bay Area and the Warriors, is excited to do whatever he can to assist her in the election. He believes that with her on the ticket, victory is within reach.

"Interesting times in our country right now," said Curry, who is set to make his Olympic debut on Sunday against Serbia. "Hopefully with her on the ticket, we're winning the election. It's a big deal, to say the least."

Curry understands the unifying power of sports, especially basketball, on a global scale. He hopes that the U.S. men's basketball team's performance over the next few weeks will continue to bring the country together. Despite the current divisions in the U.S., Curry remains focused on bringing positive energy and optimism, not only to his teammates but also to his fellow Americans. If called upon, he is ready to offer his support directly to the Harris campaign.

The vice president had the opportunity to visit the men's basketball team during their training camp in Las Vegas earlier this month. U.S. men's basketball coach Steve Kerr expressed his excitement at the prospect of Harris becoming the next president, stating that he would adjust his informal address to a more formal one if she were to win.

As the 2024 Paris Olympics kick off, Curry's declaration of support for Kamala Harris has added another dimension to the competition. With his tremendous influence and popularity, Curry's endorsement could play a significant role in shaping the outcome of the upcoming election.

The journey ahead for Harris promises to be monumental, and Curry is thrilled to be a part of it. The positive energy and optimism brought by both the Olympic Games and the sports world can potentially impact the direction the country is heading.

As the Warriors star and the U.S. men's basketball team prepare to showcase their skills on the Olympic stage, Curry's message of unity and support for Harris resonates not just with fans of the sport but with Americans across the nation.
