Steph Curry erupted for 18 third-quarter points in Game 3 of the 2018 Western Conference semifinals between the Golden State Warriors and the Houston Rockets. The highlight of the period was a floater by the two-time MVP, who was caught on camera saying “This is my f**king house.” Curry opened up in an interview that her mother, Sonya Curry, called him out for it.
Sonya was happy with her son’s impressive performance but not so with how he talked. Curry had this to say to ESPN’s Chris Haynes about what she got from her mother for his actions:
"She already sent me two home videos, showing me the clip and playing it back. She was telling me how I need to wash my mouth out, saying to wash it out with soap. It's a message I've heard before."
