National Basketball Association security mistakenly identified Curry’s father-in-law as a con man

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry reacts to being called for his sixth foul on Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James (23) during the second half of Game 6 of basketball’s NBA Finals in Cleveland, Thursday, June 16, 20…

Klay Thompson’s back-to-back 3-pointers and layup cut the deficit to 80-71 headed into the fourth.

Unanimous MVP Curry was fined for throwing his mouthpiece into the stands after he fouled out of the game. They now face the uncertainty of a Game 7 with the National Basketball Association championship on the line after the Cavaliers tied the Finals at three games apiece with a 115-101 win Thursday.

Coach Steve Kerr also lost at the postgame press conference when he criticized the officiating against Curry in high stakes game. The mouthpiece hit the son of one of the Cavs’ minority owners, who was sitting in the front row and later received an apology from Curry. The repeat was expected due to how the team as a whole was playing; star and league MVP Stephen Curry has spent most of the series in a bit of a slump, and the rest of the Warriors appeared to pick up the slack that often comes with relying heavily on a star player. “He should be upset”. With 38 points, Curry returned to form and while Cleveland stayed in the game, the final score being 108-97, they still clearly couldn’t compete with a revitalized Golden State team. It’s a physical game…. “Three of them were absolutely ridiculous”, Kerr said.

A Game 7 is coming Sunday, though, with a chance for a massive audience. As the MVP of the league, we’re talking about these touch fouls in the NBA Finals.

It was Curry’s first ejection, and his time fouling out since December 13, 2013.

“I was just kind of debriefed on what the security thought happened with some guy that poses with fake credentials and gets backstage at a lot of events, the NBA Finals and all that stuff”, Curry told The Undefeated.
