Stephen and Ayesha Curry Will Endorse Biden at Tonight's DNC

Stephen Curry, one of the most popular players in the N.B.A., and his wife, the author and chef Ayesha Curry, endorsed Joseph R. Biden Jr. at the Democratic National Convention on Thursday night.

The celebrity couple appeared in a taped video in prime time with their daughters, Riley, 8, and Ryan, 5, one of the highest-profile athlete appearances at a political convention for either party in history.

“We want to ensure that our kids live in a nation that is safe, happy, healthy and fair, and so this election ——” Mrs. Curry said in the video. Mr. Curry cut in to say, “We’re voting for Joe Biden.”

The brief video, titled “Keeping the Faith w/ the Currys,” lasted around three minutes and was framed as a conversation among the family members. It was produced by Mr. Curry’s production company.
