Vice President Kamala Harris and her husband, second gentleman Doug Emhoff, have a bit of a conflict when it comes to the Golden State Warriors-Los Angeles Lakerssecond-round NBA playoffs series.



Harris, a native of Oakland, is a Warriors fan, while Emhoff, who moved to California as a teenager and went to college at California State Northridge and law school at USC, roots for the Lakers. Before the two teams tipped off their series Tuesday night, Harris made a friendly bet with her husband.




This isn't the first time Harris has made a bet related to the Warriors. In 2017, she won a case of beer from Sen. Sherrod Brown of Ohio after Harris' team defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA Finals. Brown also had to wear a Warriors jersey as a result of the bet.
