If Steph Curry gets into politics after his career ends, he’s already got a vote from Danny Green … ’cause the NBA player tells TMZ Sports the country could use someone from the league in office — so why not Steph?!
Curry mentioned the possibility of running during an interview that aired on “CBS Mornings” this week, claiming he’s open to a position in the government after his run with Golden State ends.
.@StephenCurry30 wants to help kids find their inner confidence with his book, “I Am Extraordinary.”
He tells @jerickaduncan about his focus on children’s literacy and his potential post-basketball future: “I have an interest in leveraging every part of my influence for good.” pic.twitter.com/FkrDF6GhbH

Green — a longtime NBA veteran who played for the 76ers this season — said Curry is the perfect candidate from the league for a gig like that … and he would 100 percent support the Splash Brother if he saw his name on a ballot.
“If anybody from our league is gonna represent us in that fashion, it’d be him,” the 36-year-old said. “I’d vote for him.”
“He does things the right way,” Green continued. “Spiritual guy, faith, uses his platform for great things. He’s a good human being. How can you hate Steph Curry?”
Green went on to praise the Warriors star for even considering a career in politics … noting it ain’t exactly the easiest post-basketball route to take.
Green also told us which NBA player he’d like to see be Curry’s running mate … and, fittingly, one of the guys he mentioned is one of Steph’s old teammates!
