Kerr, who coaches the Golden State Warriors, pointed out twice that Harris’ husband, Doug Emhoff, is a Los Angeles Lakers fan.

“I've met her many times given that she's from Oakland and we've been fortunate enough to visit the White House when she was there, but also on a few trips to California,” Kerr said. “I've met her several times and she's a Warriors fan. She loves our team. She loves basketball. Yeah, the first gentleman is a Lakers fan, unfortunately, but we will live with that.”
