Warriors on NBCS/Twitter Stephen Curry wears shirt in defense of wife Ayesha

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry is stepping up his defense against Boston during the NBA Finals — both on and off the court.

Following the Warriors' Game 5 victory over the Boston Celtics, Curry arrived at a postgame conference wearing a shirt that read, "Ayesha Curry CAN Cook," in big letters.

When asked about the shirt during the media session, the 34-year-old said: "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 authored several cookbooks and released a line of cookware.

The Boston Globe and Mass Live identified 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 star Jayson Tatum.

Along with Riley, Curry and Ayesha share two other children: son Canon W. Jack, 3, and daughter Ryan Carson, 6.
