Steph’s 6-year-old son, like many Golden State supporters, was devastated following the team’s defeat by the Houston Rockets in a terrible fourth quarter.
Canon Curry, like other Golden State Warriors supporters, was devastated on Friday night when his father Stephen Curry and the team collapsed in the fourth quarter of Game 6 against the Houston Rockets. However, as Steph informed his son, Sunday still has one more game.
As the fourth quarter began, the Warriors had reduced the Rockets’ lead to just two points. Curry’s surge to knock out the Rockets and end the series at home was simply anticipated by the basketball community and Warriors supporters. However, it never materialized, and following an incredibly unexpected 115-107 away victory, No. 2 seed Houston completely destroyed an icy Curry and No. 7 Golden State in the fourth to force a Game 7 matchup.
Instead of the normal positive energy at the Chase Center in San Francisco, California, where Ayesha and her daughter Riley were dancing to a W, the audience was in a state of shock.
Mother and grandmother Sonya Curry were present, along with Steph and Ayesha’s son Canon. The six-year-old was crying and clutching to Ayesha after the game, and Steph had to stop him on his way to the locker room to remind him there was another game to play. The event was caught on camera. This is how it transpired.
Now, Steph and Golden State are traveling in a do-or-die scenario. Will they lose to the LeBron-led Cleveland Cavaliers in 2016 and terminate their season after blowing another 3-1 series lead? The Warriors, Canon, Steph, and the fans all sincerely hope not, or else dad will be home with the Canon and the other children the next week.
