Stephen Curry snubs French fans—Is this the behavior we expect from our NBA heroes?

Team USA has been crooning the emotional songs of victory after their historic 5th consecutive Gold at the Olympics. However, controversies have found their way, joining the athletes in celebrations off the court. First, it was LeBron James who deprived a teenager of his core memory, as the King denied taking a picture with the young fan. The Laker got to the entrance of a nightclub and was vibing to the tunes of a song alongside Savannah. Hours later, Stephen Curry also weirdly ignored the love of the fans.

This time, contrary to King James, Stephen Curry was stepping out of the club after the party. After a game-changing 24-point streak with only 3s, what’s a more apt occasion for a massive celebration? However, Chef Curry, with droopy eyes, seemed to be in a post-party hangover as he rushed through the crowd. He did not even flinch at the fans who were asking him for pictures!

Though it seems that it was all because of a hangover, the Warrior star might have also resorted to such a decision after a disturbing incident with his wife and kids in Paris just earlier that evening.

After the Paris Olympics Final, a video of Ayesha Curry went viral. She had her youngest son, Caius, in her arms. From the looks of it, she was asking the officer to let go of their car so they could leave. However, the police, for some reason, kept them there to avoid any other incident with Steph’s spouse and kids. Ayesha’s son Caius and her mother-in-law were together victims of an alleged assault by the locals.

Stephen Curry’s mother, Sonya, was outraged, and she shouted, “Stop! You should be helping us. It’s a baby.” Sonya called for police help, but all she was getting was sympathy rather than action. “They won’t let the driver come here and won’t let us go back there.” It was obvious Ayesha was tearing up after the continuous debate over the issue for a long time.

Draymond Green also lashed out at the security system in Paris, which failed to take care of the Curry family. “So even after them hitting the baby, there is still nothing y’all can do to get them out there?” he ranted. However, it wasn’t just the mother and wife of Stephen Curry who suffered in Paris post-win. More of his family members faced discomfort.

Stephen Curry’s sister’s Paris trip does not end in smiles, despite Team USA winning Gold

Sydel Curry was left disappointed after she and her husband Damion Lee could not get sleep after their party. On Instagram, she narrated, “It’s almost 6:30 in Paris, we have not slept, and we can’t get back to our hotel. There’s a marathon going on and they’ve blocked off every access to about 15 minutes of walking distance outside of our hotel.”

But Sydel’s pain did not end here as she further added, “However, all of the places to walk to get to our hotel are also blocked off from us. So we don’t know how we’re supposed to get home, so shout out to Paris for blocking our blessings and just trying to get some sleep.” It seems like after all the on-court havoc that Stephen Curry brought on France during the Finals is coming back to his family.

Fortunately, they found the metro and navigated their way to get to their hotel. They reached back successfully as she later updated her fans about her 3-hour nap ahead of the flight home, USA. It was definitely a rollercoaster ride for Stephen Curry’s family after facing such serious trouble in the City of Love.

Whether such uproar towards visiting celebrities and athletes is a normal thing or not, these series of events surely painted a poor picture of the locals of the area.
