President Barack Obama has teamed with reigning¹ NBA MVP Stephen Curryon a public service announcement calling for Americans to mentor³ youth in their community to make a positive impact.

日前，美国总统奥巴马与NBA最有价值球员史蒂芬·库里一道拍摄了一则公益广告，呼吁美国民众引导社区中的年轻人发挥正能量。

The video was shown last Saturday on ABC's "NBA Countdown" ahead of Curry²'s playoff opener with the defending champion Golden State Warriors⁴ against the Houston Rockets.

这则广告视频于周六在美国广播公司的“NBA倒计时”节目中首次播出，之后才播出NBA卫冕冠军金州勇士队与休斯顿火箭队的对决。

Curry and Obama golfed together last August and Curry also visited the White House with the Warriors in February - and Obama mentioned Curry "clowning" with defenders⁵ the way he had been shooting.

事实上，库里和奥巴马早在去年八月就曾一起打过高尔夫。库里和勇士队还在今年二月份访问了白宫，奥巴马当时提到库里的投篮表现时，开玩笑称其就像扮小丑来闹场。

The PSA was done through "MENTOR: The National Mentoring⁶ Partnership⁷" and motivated by Obama's "My Brother's Keeper" initiative, which raises awareness⁸ and calls for action to ensure all youth - including young men of color - reach their full potential.

此次，两人共同参演的广告主题为“打造国家良师益友计划”，这则公益广告是受到奥巴马总统发起的“同胞兄弟守护者”倡议精神的激励。“同胞兄弟守护者”旨在敦促社会各界为少数青年族裔创造更多机会，并帮助所有年轻人（包括有色人种）发挥出他们的潜能。

Curry is active in the Bay Area community and committed to making a difference.

库里在旧金山湾区的社区活动中非常积极，影响力也非常大。

After a recent visit to Martin Luther King Jr. Elementary in inner-city Oakland, he said, "The opportunity, obviously the 15-20 minutes you're with them, I think goes a long way. Just having fun with them is the most important. It was very beneficial."

近日在奥克兰平民区参观马丁·路德·金所在的小学后，库里表示：“很明显，这种陪伴他们15-20分钟的机会，都非常有意义。和他们一起玩得开心是非常重要的，这将令他们受益。”
