PARIS, FRANCE - AUGUST 10: Stephen Curry #4 of Team United States celebrates after his team's victory against Team France during the Men's Gold Medal game between Team France and Team United States on day fifteen of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 at Be
PARIS (AP) - Stephen Curry was thinking about this two years ago, after winning his fourth NBA title. The only thing left for him to win was Olympic gold.
And in the ultimate moment, he made sure that medal would be his.
The U.S. is atop the international men's basketball world once again, after Curry scored 24 points and led the way to a 98-87 win over France in the final at the Paris Games on Saturday night. It was the fifth consecutive gold medal for the U.S. - and the 17th in 20 all-time appearances for the Americans at the games.
Curry made four 3-pointers in the final 2:43, including the one that just sealed the win with 1:19 remaining. It put the U.S. up 93-84 and he skipped down the court letting out a yell, shaking his jersey so everyone could see the "USA" across the front.
If that wasn't enough, one more followed with about 30 seconds left - with the "go to sleep" move where he puts his hands on the side of his face.
Good night. Game over. Gold won. Again.
