NBA star Steph Curry registered his displeasure with Killer Mike over comments the rapper made about his wife, Ayesha. 

Per talkSPORT, Curry, 37, on Instagram, made his feelings known to Killer Mike, born Michael Santiago Render, after the rapper appeared to agree to a comment regarding Ayesha embarrassing her husband. 

The 50-year-old rapper commented on a video from TikToker Bookie Woodz, who said that Ayesha, 36, wanted “to go be GloRilla or some sh**.” “Like, we get it, bro. Just go drop an album or some sh**,” Woodz also said in the video. 

Killer Mike responded to Woodz’s comments with laughing emojis before writing, “My n**** said she wanna go be Glo!!! Man Steph doesn’t deserve the embarrassment frfr [for real]. God bless him.”

But Curry did not take the Grammy-winning rapper’s comments lightly and directly addressed him. A screenshot of the 37-year-old’s response was captured by The Shade Room.

“@killermike naaaaa not you Mike,” the Golden State Warriors superstar and four-time NBA champion wrote. “I’m cool [staying] silent and letting these other clowns have [their] moment! And you’re the worst of them @boowoodz234,” he wrote in reference to Woodz.

Curry then mentioned the rapper again, writing, “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,” he concluded alongside a peace-sign emoji.

Curry and Ayesha tied the knot in 2011, and they share two daughters and two sons. In a previous interview with PEOPLE, Ayesha stated that her relationship with Curry “always” came before being parents.

“I think for us, our relationship always comes first. Then we’re parents,” Ayesha said. “And that works for us because then you have two happy people raising the kids in the house. So the family sector in our lives always comes first.”

“And then honestly, it’s just surrounding ourselves with people that are smarter than us and know what they’re doing and can make the things run,” she added. “And they allow us the space to be creative and they allow us the space to truly show up however we choose to. And I think that’s what’s really worked for us.”

“We’re not control freaks,” Ayesha also disclosed. “We have ideas, but we’re willing to let people help us see those ideas into fruition.”
