Steph Curry Considering Future In Politics After Basketball Career

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (30) gestures during an NBA basketball game against the Oklahoma City Thunder in San Francisco, Saturday, Nov. 18, 2023. All-Star Saturday Night, Feb.

Steph Curry, the four-time NBA champion, is contemplating his future beyond basketball. The 35-year-old recently expressed his openness to potentially pursuing a career in politics once he retires from the sport.

In a recent interview, Curry hinted at the possibility of entering the political arena, stating, 'I have an interest in leveraging every part of my influence for good in the way that I can. So if that's the way to do it, then I'm not saying the presidency, but if politics, that's may-bay.'

While Curry stopped short of confirming a run for the presidency, he did not rule out the idea entirely. When asked about the prospect of running for office, he responded, 'You're not ruling it out? No. 2028, you never know.'

Curry emphasized that his interest in politics stems from a desire to create meaningful change, whether through political means or alternative avenues. He acknowledged that politics could be a platform for driving positive impact, but also noted that there may be other ways to effect change outside of the political sphere.

As fans and observers speculate about Curry's potential future in politics, the basketball star remained cautious about the timeline, suggesting that a political career may not be imminent. 'Not that soon. Not that soon, okay,' Curry remarked.

With his impressive basketball career and track record of philanthropic efforts, Curry's foray into politics could offer a new platform for him to continue making a difference in the world.
