Curry jabs at Trump, James slams travel ban (AFP)

NBA superstars LeBron James and Stephen Curry are rivals on the court, but they were united Wednesday in their willingness to call out US President Donald Trump. Golden State Warriors star Curry stepped gamely into the political fray with a sly response to Under Armour apparel company chief Kevin Plank's description of Trump as a "real asset" to the country. "I agree with that description, if you remove the 'et' from asset," Curry told the Mercury News when asked about the comments from Plank.
