Stephen Curry Wants Changes to Discriminatory LGBT Law

Stephen Curry spoke out against discriminatory LGBT legislation in his home state of North Carolina.

The NBA’s back-to-back MVP says the so-called “bathroom bill” has to change.

The League recently pulled the 2017 All-Star Game from Charlotte and moved it to New Orleans.

Per the AP:

Curry, who grew up in Charlotte and played college basketball at nearby Davidson, said Thursday he has mixed feelings about sporting events leaving the state. The NBA has pulled next year’s All-Star game out of Charlotte, and the NCAA this week began the process of relocating seven championships from North Carolina, including the opening weekend of the men’s basketball tournament.

 

“I think it’s unfortunate for our city and our state to be under the microscope with HB2 and how it’s unfolded,” Curry said. “I’m all for equal and fair rights and treatment for everybody. Until it gets addressed, until some changes are made, this could be a recurring theme in North Carolina. I don’t want that happen.”

 

“The All-Star Game has been moved, the NCAA Tournament, things that would bring so much joy and support to the city, mainstay events. But I think it’s a conversation that will continue until changes are made. I don’t have any answers as to how that will happen, but hopefully it happens sooner rather than later.”
