NBA’s Stephen Curry and NFL’s Harrison Butker revealed their support for Kamala Harris and Donald Trump respectively.
The race between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris to determine who will end up being the 47th President of the United States of America is heating up. Both candidates are finding supporters among celebrities, businessmen and sporting professionals. Stephen Curry was the most popular star to come out and declare his support. But NFL star Harrison Butker and his differing views to the NBA star have since gone viral.
After coming back from the Olympics, Stephen Curry was a guest on a lot of talk shows and news hour programs. On CNBC’s Squawk on the Street’s show on September 4th, he was asked what specific issues he wants dealt.
Especially women’s rights and thinking about what’s at stake in this election. We need to be in a position where women have the right to choose what’s right for them.
Stephen Curry said
He mentioned that he is surrounded by women in his life and wants what is the best for them. That can come if Kamala Harris is voted as the next president.
The four-time NBA champion also talked about fostering the country into a new era where everyone can talk about their issues. He feels Harris and the Democrats can solve problems unlike the Republicans. All that made him speak through a pre-recorded video at the Democratic National Convention.

NBA and WNBA stars mostly have shown that they support Harris. But it is not the same when it comes to other sporting leagues. The NFL for instance, has a more balanced support base. One of the most vocal happens to be Kansas City Chiefs star, Harrison Butker.
