Golden State Warriors point guardStephen Curryis stepping up his defense against Boston during the NBA Finals — both on and off the court.
When asked about the shirt during the media session, the 34-year-oldsaid: “You gotta ask around the room, and ask Twitter.”
The shirt was in response to a Boston sports bar that took a not-so-subtle shot at Curry’s wife when they posted a sign with the message, “Ayesha Curry Can’t Cook,” outside their doors last week.
Ayesha, 33, has authoredseveral cookbooksand released a line of cookware.
TheBoston GlobeandMass Liveidentified the bar as Game On!, a sports bar in Fenway. The restaurant did not immediately return PEOPLE’s request for comment on Tuesday.

Another photograph showed that the bar’s sign also included a message comparing the couple’s 9-year-old daughter, Riley, to the son of Celtics starJayson Tatum.
Along with Riley, Curry and Ayesha share two other children: son Canon W. Jack, 3, and daughter Ryan Carson, 6.
