While promoting his latest children’s book, ‘I Am Extraordinary,’ Tuesday on CBS Mornings, national correspondent Jericka Duncan asked Curry if he would be open to a political career post-basketball. Curry, 35, didn’t rule it out.

‘Maybe, I have an interest in leveraging every part of my influence for good in the way that I can,’ Curry said. ‘So, if that’s the way to do it, then – I’m not going to say the presidency but if politics is a way that you can create meaningful change, or if there’s another way outside of politics.’

Although Curry showed no interest in running for president, he has rubbed elbows with several of them. The Warriors paid a visit to the White House in celebration of their 2015 NBA championship with former President Barack Obama and also visited with the Biden Administration following their 2022 title. (The Warriors won titles in 2017 and 2018, but didn’t visit the White House during President Donald Trump’s years in office.)
