Golden State Warriors

Steph Curry and his wife, Ayesha, claim her father was "profiled" and "almost arrested" by NBA security at Game 6 in Cleveland Thursday night ... in a case of mistaken identity.

Ayesha first went public about the situation after the game -- tweeting, "Police racial profiled my father and told him to remove credentials and tried to arrest him."

Steph echoed her comments to ESPN on his way out of the stadium -- after the Warriors lost to the Cavs.

But NBA security says it can explain ... telling ESPN Ayesha's father bared a resemblance to a con artist named David Aminzadeh who had been using fake credentials to sneak into major sporting events.

Security spoke with Ayesha's dad -- and eventually determined he was NOT Aminzadeh.

Draymond Green was asked to throw out the first pitch at Monday's Oakland A's game -- but respectfully declined ... this according to a rep for the A's.

With the Golden State Warriors star serving a 1 game suspension -- and unable to be in the arena for Game 5 of the NBA Finals -- Green said he would be attending the A's game, located right next to Oracle Arena.

TMZ Sports spoke with A's Director of Corporate Communications, Catherine Aker, who confirmed Green will be in the stadium ... but doesn't want to make a spectacle.

"We extended an invitation to Draymond to throw out the first pitch and he declined. He would prefer to keep a low profile while at our game."

That smoke show of a Warriors fan who gave Steph Curry the sex face during game 2 of the NBA Finals is back -- and she's sitting IN FRONT of Steph's wife.

Yes, Instagram model Roni Rose has found herself courtside in Cleveland for game 4, while Ayesha Curry is almost directly behind her ... 2 rows back.

This creates an issue for Steph: How the hell can he look up at Ayesha AND keep Rose out of his line of sight at the same damn time??

More problematic for the NBA MVP -- Rose is sitting right behind the Warriors bench.

Focus, Curry. Focus.

It's a hip-hop match made in Warriors heaven ... E-40 tells TMZ Sports he's ALL ABOUT teaming up with fellow Golden State superfan MC Hammer for a new hip-hop track -- and hopes to release it in the next year.

The legendary rapper joined the guys on the "TMZ Sports" TV Show (airs tonight on FS1) to talk about Golden State's Game 1 thrashing ... when he told us about his long-standing friendship with Hammer.

So, when we asked if there would be a collab anytime soon, E-40 was ALL ABOUT IT -- saying, "The chances are for real for real ... we gotta put that in motion."

Draymond Green was feelin' goooood after clinching win #73 Wednesday night ... keeping the party train rollin' at a Bay Area nightclub until 2 AM ... and TMZ Sports has the video.

Green -- along with Golden State Warriors rookie Kevon Looney -- hit up Pure Lounge around 12:30 AM and partied with some pretty pumped up GS fans until the place closed.

The people at Pure went all out for Draymond ... breaking out bottles of booze, confetti and hot chicks in sexy Warriors uniforms.

All in all ... it was a good night to be Draymond.

Stephen Curry chalked up an L Thursday before the Warriors took on the Spurs ... getting his butt kicked in a ScootEBike race ... and TMZ Sports has the footage.

Klay Thompson's dad Mychal Thompson is calling out Scottie Pippen ... saying his son's team would definitely beat the '96 Bulls in a never-gonna-happen fantasy basketball series.

Thompson -- a former NBA #1 overall pick -- was out in L.A. when we asked him about Pip saying his record setting Bulls team would SWEEP the Warriors if the two were able to magically meet up.

The comments caught fire on social media with some accusing Pippen of old man "get off my yard" nostalgic bravado ... and some saying he was dead on.

Count Mychal among that first group ... 'cause he says Steph and the gang would take out MJ and Pippen's crew in a sizzling seven game series.

This is pretty damn funny ... if you're not NBA star Festus Ezeli.

The Golden State Warriors star was targeted for a hilarious prank by some of his teammates, including Andre Iguodala and Klay Thompson ... who executed a plot to convince Festus he'd been cut from the team.

6:04 AM PT -- Draymond Green addressed the situation after the Warriors game Wednesday night -- and didn't deny being the driver.

"Obviously, poor judgment," Green said ... "But I think it's kind of out-of-story of what it's trying to be made out to be. I'm not here to take any attention away from this team."

The Warriors also issued a statement saying, "We are aware of the video and will discuss it with Draymond after tonight's game. We hold all of our players and staff members to a high standard that sends a positive message and example to our fans and the community in general."

"We look forward to having a conversation with Draymond and getting additional information."

Bizarre situation involving NBA star Draymond Green -- who posted (and then deleted) a video that appeared to show him driving 118 mph in his BMW ... and now his reps aren't talking.

Green posted the video to his Snapchat story Wednesday -- shot from the driver's seat in a BMW that's tearing up a public road that appears to be in the Bay Area. The video never reveals the face of the person driving the car.

People on social media began to freak out -- asking Green why he would post the video on his page and if he was the driver.

Soon after, Green deleted the video from his page.

In another video Green posted earlier to the same Snapchat story, the NBA star can be seen in what appears to be the same car ... though it's unclear if the footage was shot during the same ride as the 118 mph.

We reached out to Green's agent and the Golden State Warriors for comment -- so far no one's talking.

Here's Klay Thompson winning again ... hitting Warwick nightclub in L.A. hours after his Warriors beat the Clippers on Saturday -- and leaving with a car full of hot chicks.

Thompson has a way with the ladies ... whether it be in Vegas or L.A -- remember the underwater twerk fest??

(Having a championship ring and a $70 million contract tends to help).

You win ... you get roasted -- and Thursday, the Golden State Warriors became targets for the comedic stylings of President Barack Obama!!

It's pretty funny -- the entire team arrived to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave to be honored by POTUS ... and Obama delivered zinger after zinger, targeting everyone from Steph Curry to Klay Thompson.

Really, the only person who got some love was Steph's daughter Riley (besides Steve Kerr who got props for being on the Bulls).

MC Hammer is already clearing out his schedule for June -- telling TMZ Sports he's fired up and ready to party with the Golden State Warriors again ... when the team repeats as NBA champs!

Remember, Hammer -- a huge GSW fan -- took a private jet to Cleveland for the finals last year and then raged with the team after they clinched the title!

And when we saw MC leaving Fat Burger in Bev Hills Tuesday -- he told us he's ready to do it again ... and expects the team to dominate for many years to come.

Funny candid moment with Rudy Tomjanovich.

The former Rockets and Lakers head coach was at Staples Center Tuesday night for the game ... when asked a question everyone's trying to figure out -- how do you beat the Warriors?

His answer's pretty funny.

We also asked if he thinks the Warriors can win 73 games this season ... eclipsing the 95-96 Bulls.

Here it is ... a picture of the special bottle of wine the Golden State Warriors gave to Kobe Bryant ... and we're told it's worth a FORTUNE!!

TMZ Sports spoke with John Schwartz -- the owner of the Amuse Bouche Winery in Napa Valley -- who tells us the special 5 liter Jerobaum bottle of 2012 cabernet was specially made for #24.

"The wine was made by famed winemaker Heidi Barrett," Schwartz tells us -- Barrett happens to be one of the most famous winemakers in the country.

Schwartz would not put an exact number on the value of the bottle -- but says similar bottles usually sell for "tens of thousands of dollars."

"This one is one of a kind ... it's priceless."

In fact, the bottle was hand-etched and then painted specifically for Bryant -- by request of the owners of the Warriors who are personal friends with Schwartz.

Bryant was also gifted a Napa vacation package -- complete with dinners at some of the best restaurants in the area.

The mother of a 6-year-old boy with a severe heart condition has filed a lawsuit hoping to stop plans for a new arena for the Golden State Warriors ... 1,000 feet from a children's hospital emergency room.

Jennifer Wade is suing the chancellor of the University of California at San Francisco -- which owns the land where the proposed arena is set to be built.

Wade claims the arena would cause traffic, crowds and other obstacles that could block access to lifesaving care.

In her suit, Wade claims several public officials -- including S.F. mayor Ed Lee forced the university to sign the deal by threatening to retaliate against UCSF in some way if they got in the way of the plans.

Wade says the issue is deeply personal to her -- since her 6-year-old son Magnus has a congenital heart defect and often seeks treatment at UCSF.

"He often needs emergency care at a moment’s notice. It terrifies me to think about being caught in traffic, unable to bring Magnus to the hospital."

"I filed this lawsuit because I can’t believe that the Chancellor would allow the Warriors to build their arena next to the hospital."

Drake and Steph Curry were super protected during their late night burger run -- in fact, even the BATHROOM was cleared out when Drake had to pee ... TMZ Sports has learned.
