Andre Iguodala: Steph Curry Unfairly Pressured ... to Speak On Transgender Laws
Andre Iguodala Steph Curry Unfairly Pressured to Speak On Transgender Laws
Andre Iguodala says his teammate, Steph Curry, was unfairly pressured into taking a public stand against transgender laws in Charlotte ... and called the whole thing a "lose-lose situation."
The Golden State Warriors star appeared on "The Breakfast Club" on Thursday -- and said he thinks it's BS that superstars like Steph and LeBron are always called upon to fight social injustice. He was essentially taking a stand against taking a stand.
It's an interesting comment ... considering LeBron's speech at the ESPYs Wednesday night.
But the most interesting part -- when Andre brought up a situation involving Steph Curry that went down right around the time North Carolina passed a controversial law requiring transgender people to use the bathrooms that corresponds to their gender at the time of their birth.
"Steph's from Charlotte and they tried to make him make a statement about the trans laws," Andre said ... without specifying who was putting the pressure on Curry.
"Why should he have to have an opinion about that? It's a lose lose situation for him no matter which way he goes."
As for Steph ... he waffled on the topic when first asked about it back in March -- before issuing a slightly stronger statement a few days later.
If it was up to Andre, he wouldn't have had to comment about it all.
