Steph Curry Comes To Wife Ayesha Curry’s Defense Following Gilbert Arenas’ Controversial Comments About Her Career & Their Marriage

#StephCurry is kindly suggesting that y’all put some respect on his wife’s name.

The NBA superstar shared a video with his nearly 57 million Instagram followers, celebrating his wife, #AyeshaCurry, and her many accomplishments. He also took the opportunity to address the criticism surrounding Ayesha and her career. Steph ended with a message for the critics, “kindly” suggesting that moving forward, whenever Ayesha’s name comes up, they simply offer their congratulations. He also expressed hope that the apologies would be just as loud as the criticism.

Steph’s post follows former NBA player #GilbertArenas recently raising eyebrows with his comments about Ayesha and her marriage to the Golden State Warriors star. ICYMI: During an episode of the “We Said What We Said” podcast, Arenas praised Steph’s reputation as a family man before calling Ayesha “the only blemish in the family,” arguing that she doesn’t carry herself like other NBA superstars’ wives. He compared her to Savannah James and Cookie Johnson, suggesting that wives of high-profile athletes should maintain a lower public profile.

His remarks came amid online chatter surrounding Ayesha’s kissing scene in her new Roku film, “Second Chance Holiday.”
