Ayesha Curry is absolutely fuming.
The wife of Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry did not hesitate to voice her fury as the Warriors dropped game 6 of 2016 NBA Finals.
Following the 115-101 defeat to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday night, Ayesha Curry took to Twitter with an extraordinary outburst aimed at the NBA and its officials.
The rant came after the back-to-back MVP Curry was ejected from the game with minutes remaining on the clock for throwing his gumshield in anger when a foul call was called against him.
Chasing the Cavaliers’ 12-point lead was always going to be an uphill battle in Curry’s absence and a game 7 decider was confirmed with the result.
And his wife, who had been vocal on Twitter all evening, sensationally accused the NBA of rigging the game for its benefit, claiming she saw irrefutable evidence that the NBA contrived to bring the series to another game for added ratings and revenue.
She quickly deleted the post but not before tens of thousands retweeted it, with ESPN’s Rachel Nichols just one to have snapped a screenshot.

tweeted in the heat of the moment because the call was uncalled for.

10 mins til game time and the whole teams families are sitting here on a bus. They won't let us in yet. Interesting tactic though. Again.

Police racial profiled my father and told him to remove credentials and tried to arrest him. It's been a long night for me. I apologize:

I'm okay that we lost… I just can't take people coming at my family for absolutely no reason. Something I don't understand or stand for.
