The Golden State Warriors’ superstar Stephen Curry, after failing to make a notable contribution in the playoffs, has decided to take some time off the court. And tied to him, in all the moves, is his wife, Ayesha Curry. Swinging the golf club to balancing business, or going on a vacation to celebrate daughter Riley’s teen hood, the Currys are wearing several hats at the same time. And it’s not just Steph grinding, even Ayesha, apart from being a mother of four, is making her way into business, and the latest addition is her newly launched vegan skincare line, Sweet July Skin. However, that doesn’t stop her from enjoying some alone time once in a while. That’s exactly what she was seen doing during a recent WNBA matchup.
The Sweet July Skin owner was spotted sitting courtside during the Golden State Valkyries’ latest WNBA clash against the Dallas Wings. But who was she rooting for? Of course, the Warriors guard’s wife was supporting the home team and even sent out a message for them. Ayesha Curry took to Instagram to extend her support to the Bay Area-based WNBA franchise. “BALLHALLA,” She captioned her IG story, which featured a stunning picture of her black boots.
This was a not-so-subtle homage to the Valkyries. The term ‘Ballhalla’ has become a moniker for the Chase Center, which is home to both the Valkyries and the Warriors. If you’re a video game fanatic, this new term would’ve rung some bells; if not, don’t worry, we’ve got you. This term, which Ayesha Curry posted on her story, is a subtle wordplay on the Norse mythological realm of ‘Valhalla.’ You might be wondering how that relates to the Valkyries, right?

Well, even the name of Valkyries is inspired by Norse Mythology, hence ‘Ballhalla’ is used to describe the excitement of their home court. Nonetheless, this isn’t it. Ayesha Curry also posted another story, which was a clip of the game tipping off at the iconic Chase Center, as she tagged the Golden State Valkyries official Instagram account. However, Ayesha Curry wasn’t the only star in the building supporting the Valkyries, as Dubs star Brandin Podziemski joined Curry’s wife courtside, cheering for the WNBA team.
The sophomore guard, who’s enjoying this offseason, was seen in a completely new look, leaving the fans in awe. Although Podziemski did grab a lot of attention, what caught everyone’s eye even more was Ayesha Curry, enjoying the game all by herself. Yes, Stephen Curry wasn’t in attendance, which was pretty unusual given that the long-time couple hardly make public appearances without each other. However, it could’ve been the result of a major confession Curry recently made during an interview.
Stephen Curry makes a massive confession about his business venture with Michelle Obama
Stephen Curry’s massive influence isn’t just limited to the court; the Golden State Warriors star is huge off it as well. From golfing to building multi-million dollar businesses with his wife, Ayesha Curry, the Dubs superstar is taking small steps towards building an empire. A huge statement towards that is his recent collaboration with Michelle Obama. The former first lady and Curry joined hands to introduce Plexi Hydration, a sports energy drink, to their audience.
While you might think Stephen Curry and Ayesha Curry did most of the heavy lifting in this project, that’s not the case. Instead, the couple’s children helped them big time in launching their hydration brand. But how did they help is what you’re thinking, right? The Warriors star recently revealed that Canon, Ryan, and Riley are Plezi’s ultimate taste testers. “We allowed our kids to drive the entire back end,” He said in his interview with Complex.

“We allowed our kids to kind of be the taste testers and drive the entire kind of back end of what we want to get behind. And for us, like it’s not just a lifestyle about being active and getting your kids involved in stuff, whether it’s sports, whether it’s whatever.” The idea behind Curry’s step is not just some cute commentary but to get honest feedback. Moreover, he wants his kids to learn more about businesses, sports, and life in general.
In fact, their feedback matters so much, it has birthed Plezi’s Lemon Lime, Tropical Punch, and Orange Mango Twist. You could go as far as saying that this partnership between Stephen Curry and Michelle Obama relies on Curry’s three children’s taste buds. Nonetheless, this is more than just business for the veteran guard; it’s about giving his fans an authentic experience, something he seems to be excelling at with Plezi.
