Steph Curry says 'women's right to choose' is top issue for supporting Harris, despite past neutral stance

NBA superstar Steph Curry said "a woman's right to choose" is at the top of his list of issues going into the presidential election this fall when asked why he has endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris.

"Endorsing Kamala is important for me and for my family," he said. "I just know from, especially women's rights, and thinking about what's at stake with this election, and understanding, like, we need to be in a position where women have the right to choose what's right for them, and that's at the top of my list for me. I have amazing women in my life who've been a huge inspiration to me." Jackson Thompson is a sports writer for Fox News Digital. He previously worked for ESPN and Business Insider. Jackson has covered the Super Bowl and NBA Finals, and has interviewed iconic figures Usain Bolt, Rob Gronkowski, Jerry Rice, Troy Aikman, Mike Trout, David Ortiz and Roger Clemens.

It marks a strong change in stance from where he was just two years ago. In a 2022 Rolling Stone interview, Curry said he didn't consider himself pro-life or pro-choice, nor did he feel the need to speak out against the Supreme Court's landmark reversal of Roe v. Wade earlier that year.
