Stephen Curry Owes Killer Mike Apology As Ex-NBA Star Digs Ayesha Curry’s Past

Originally posted on EssentiallySports | By Caroline John | Last updated Oct 4, 2025 10:13 AM ET

We thought the Curry et al vs Killer Mike saga was over. But now we’re in the stage everyone weighs in. This one though could start another shouting match on Gil’s Arena. To recap, Ayesha Curry’s Call Me Daddy interview created a storm that’s hardly calmed in two months. The only time Stephen Curry weighed in was to clap back at Killer Mike for making comments about his wife. That interview didn’t impact the Currys’ marriage. But Killer Mike took a public 180 on his stance. It’s still a divisive issue but the rapper has at least one NBA guy in his corner.

Rashad McCants is usually unpredictable when it comes to picking a side. But he’s not the biggest Curry fan in Gil’s Arena. He had not even weighed in on Ayesha Curry’s comments either nor did he talk about Killer Mike’s and Steph’s exchange on Instagram last month.

Until Killer Mike appeared on Club Shay Shay this week and issued a public apology to Ayesha. “Mrs. Ayesha Curry and her husband Steph, I apologize for my statement being misconstrued. I was just stoned up trying to make a joke out of what’s on that. It wasn’t my damn business like my wife said. So I’m sorry y’all.”

That got mixed reactions. McCants’ though finally dove into this debate and it’s not hard to see which Internet faction he picked. “Nahhh @KillerMike he owe you an apology now!!! I’m not rolling. This is evidence…. She not high. lol,” he tweeted.

His tweet was in reference to Ayesha’s comments, “I didn’t want kids. I didn’t wanna get married. I thought I was gonna be a career girl and that’s it. And I had my eyes set on my goals, and I was never the little girl that, like, dreamt about the wedding dress and all of that.”

Steph and Ayesha have four kids, including Cai who turned one this year. The Internet was up in arms about he statement on the kids.

While Killer Mike’s apology is about interfering in a matter that had nothing to do with him, McCants believes Steph – McCants specifically said ‘he’ – needs to apologize because the rapper wasn’t wrong about Ayesha. Although the whole beef between Steph and Killer Mike indicates, The Chef didn’t care about Ayesha’s explosive revelations.

The odds of Curry taking McCants’ suggestion in public (unless they hash it out in private, which is cool) are very, very slim. But his tweet could create a loud difference of opinion on Gil’s Arena.

The beef originated weeks after Ayesha Curry’s interview. A content creator, Bookie Woodz, turned it into a hilarious skit that wasn’t very flattering to Steph Curry’s wife. Some names with blue ticks commented under his post, including Killer Mike.

“

My N—– said she wanna go be Glo!!! Man Steph doesn’t deserve the embarrassment frfr. God bless him.” The 4x NBA champion saw it. He didn’t care about Woodz’ skit. But he took offense to Killer Mike’s comment and clapped back, “@killermike naaaaa not you Mike. i’m cool stating silent and letting these other clowns have they’re moment! and you’re the worst of them @baowoodz234. But you’re better than that @killermike. Stay in your lane and let God keep blessing me like he is. We r good over here.

”

Both deleted their comments but not before The Shade Room got the screengrabs. Brandon Jennings was among those who responded to Killer Mike as well. “Just say women don’t take you serious. Leave that man marriage alone!!! You know how I get down talking about people I love

”

Jennings and Curry go way back as Under Armor athletes. Now his basketball takes on Curry have clashed with McCants more than once.

Jennings was probably smug after Killer Mike’s apology. Not sure how he’d feel about McCants’ take.

It’s worth noting that Steph rarely comments on his marriage that much. And he and Ayesha have been looking like an Instagram power couple through this drama. Very unlikely they’d directly respond to Killer Mike, least of all to apologize.
