Seven years ago, Stephen Curry was up against the mighty Cleveland Cavaliers in game 6. Steered by LeBron James, the Cavs had become a force to reckon with. While the Golden State Warriors guard was in the middle of an epic showdown on the court, his wife Ayesha was fighting a very different battle off-court.

It turns out that Ayesha Curry’s father, John Alexander, was threatened to be arrested after a misidentification crisis. The surprising turn of events that took place right before the game shook the Curry couple. 

Stephen Curry had a disappointing run-in with LeBron James’ Cavs

In June 2016, 4x NBA champion Stephen Curry was busy prepping for a daunting game 6. Oblivious to what was happening outside the court, Curry plunged into the contest for a win. However, LeBron James had other plans. He orchestrated a Cavs attack that broke the Warriors.  

By the end of the last quarter, James had 41 points, 11 assists, 8 rebounds and 4 steals to Curry’s humble 30 points. Curry fouled out and got ejected from the court for the first time since 2013. The Cavs scored 115 to the Warriors’ 101 and tied the series 3-3 with their win in game 6.

However, Stephen Curry’s disappointment did not end there.

Another disappointment awaited Stephen Curry off-court

Off-court, his wife and father-in-law were stuck with the police. According to Ayesha, the “police racial profiled” her father and “told him to remove credentials and tried to arrest him.” It traumatized Ayesha Curry when they “threatened to arrest him,” as reported by Bleacher Report.

Apparently, the security had to check John Alexander’s credentials because they mistook him for David Aminzadeh—a sports fanatic notorious for sneaking into major sporting events. As Curry later explained, the security was on the watch out for a guy who gets on backstage with fake IDs. Alexander was wrongly profiled as this person and was threatened to be arrested, even before he could present his credentials.
