Golden State Warriors player Steph Curry and coach Steve Kerr spoke at a White House press briefing on Tuesday, January 17, ahead of a ceremony to honor the team’s 2022 NBA championship.Both Curry and Kerr thanked President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for their invitation to the White House.“We want to thank President Biden and Vice President Harris for the invitation to come here. It’s something that we don’t ever take for granted,” Curry said.“To have this opportunity to reflect on the accomplishment last year, to bring everybody together to celebrate that, to also acknowledge the place sports has in bringing people together from all walks of life, all backgrounds… it means a lot,” Curry added.In 2017 former President Donald Trump rescinded his invitation to the Golden State Warriors, citing Steph Curry’s hesitation to the “great honor.”The Golden State Warriors responded, saying they were disappointed that they did not have an opportunity to share their views or have an open dialogue.Curry also thanked the White House administration for their work in bringing Brittney Griner home. “It means a lot to know that she’s here and home safe with her family,” Curry said.
