Stephen Curry’s shooting skills are already the stuff of legend, but his recent performance at the 2024 Paris Olympics added another layer to his storied career. Curry led Team USA to its fifth Olympic gold in men’s basketball, with a remarkable shooting display that left fans and fellow players in awe. Karl-Anthony Towns recently highlighted Curry’s Olympic heroics on the Club Shay Shay Podcast, praising the Warriors star’s ability to elevate his game on the international stage.
In the final two games of the Olympics, Curry scored 60 points and shot an astounding 63 percent from beyond the arc, carrying Team USA through critical matchups. While Curry initially struggled in the early stages, it was LeBron James and Devin Booker who kept the team in contention. But as the tournament reached the semifinals and finals, Curry’s shooting prowess became the driving force behind Team USA’s success, culminating in a golden moment for the U.S. team.
With the Olympics behind him, Curry now shifts his focus to the upcoming NBA season. The Warriors are eager to rebound after missing the playoffs last season and face a new era as they look to young talents like Jonathan Kuminga and Brandin Podziemski to step up following Klay Thompson’s departure. Curry, along with veteran Draymond Green, is ready to guide the revamped roster, hoping his recent Olympic momentum will carry over as he leads the Warriors in their quest for another championship.
