“As a coach and former player, as a husband, a son, a father, even a grandfather, and as an American, I believe in a certain kind of leadership. I believe leaders must display dignity. I believe that leaders must tell the truth,” Kerr said, listing additional qualities people look for in their friends and family.
“Shouldn’t you want those same qualities in your president?” he said. “When you think about it that way, this is no contest.” He then threw his support behind the Harris-Walz ticket, saying the nation needs “real leadership.”
Capping his remarks, Kerr then referenced NBA star player Steph Curry’s “night night” celebration gesture, while holding his hands to the side of his head.
After the results are tallied Election Night, Kerr said, “in the words of the great Steph Curry, we can tell Donald Trump, ‘Night, night.’”
During the first day of the convention, delegates formally adopted a party platform. Later in the week, Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz will formally accept their nominations as the party’s candidates.
