Footage of Steph Curry having a tense moment with French photographers surfaced Sunday, not long after wife Ayesha had a strenuous encounter with French police in a separate video shared over the weekend.
In a clip by @Vendett_Dailly that recently circulated online, Team USA’s basketball hero could be seen leaving the venue L’Avenue with loved ones and appeared to take issue with cameras that were too close.
“Watch out!” the 36-year-old Curry yelled. “Get that out of my momma face!”

An apparent Team USA official also shouted, “Make a hole!” for Curry and his contingent to walk.
The new video comes on the heels of a separate clip featuring Ayesha, Curry’s mother Sonja and Draymond Green, who plays on the Warriors with Curry, seemingly being prevented from accessing their car following the conclusion of Team USA’s gold medal game Saturday.
In the video posted to YouTube by The Hollywood Fix , Sonya told the officers, “They won’t let the driver come here, and they won’t let us go back over there,” as Ayesha carried the couple’s infant son, Caius, while another child, appearing to be the Currys’ 6-year-old son, Canon, stood nearby.
Audio in the video picked up that “the president [Emmanuel Macron]” was en route, “so nobody’s allowed to cross the street right now until he’s passed.”
Ayesha, who also shares daughters with Curry, appeared to wipe away tears as the scene unfolded.

Green also accused the authorities of allegedly hitting the baby during the encounter, stating, “So even after you hit the baby in the head, there’s still nothing y’all can do to get them out of here?”
It’s unclear when the alleged strike occurred or which officer was accused.

The win gave Curry a gaudy 60 points in Team USA’s final two matchups as the two-time MVP added an Olympic gold medal to his Hall of Fame ledger.
The Warriors superstar wasn’t shy in engaging in some trolling of his own, either.
Curry donned a “Nuit Nuit” sweatshirt immediately after the victory, which translates to “Night Night” in French.
