Price thinks NBA is fixed after wild Game 6

Ayesha Curry has an unlikely ally backing her since-deleted conspiracy claims against the NBA.

Less than 24 hours after Stephen Curry's wife went on a Twitter tirade following Golden State's Game 6 loss to Cleveland, Boston Red Sox ace David Price joined the chorus of second-guessers who think the NBA is rigging the outcome of this year's Finals.

Price's comments follow Ayesha Curry's explosive allegations on Twitter that the NBA Finals are "absolutely rigged for money ... or ratings." The accusations came on the heels of Stephen Curry's late-game meltdown, in which the two-time MVP fouled out, hit a fan with his mouthguard, and received his first career ejection.

Curry's frustrations were indicative of the Warriors' as a whole, after LeBron James' prolific 41-point performance helped the Cavaliers force an improbable Game 7 in Oakland on Sunday.

Ayesha Curry later apologized for the deleted tweet, saying she had become caught up "in the heat of the moment" because her husband's sixth foul was "uncalled for."
