It’s like top 2 for sure – Stephen Curry details why his ‘ridiculous’ Olympic golden dagger ranks just behind the iconic OKC game

Stephen Curry has hit some ridiculous shots in his glittering career, especially some insane three-pointers from distance. Curry was at his best in the Paris Olympics, which Team USA won by beating France 98-87 in the gold medal match.

Curry smashed four three pointers in the fag end of the final and his last shot was out of this world. Curry made four 3-pointers in the final 2:43, including the one that just sealed the win with 1:19 remaining. 

Steph Curry, who scored 36 points against Serbia in the semifinal, added 24 points in the final, including eight three-pointers. The Golden State Warriors star averaged 14.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 0.7 steals per game at the Games.

“It’s so memorable because of the build-up to that moment,” Curry said in a video posted by Under Armour and Slam on Instagram. “My first Olympic experience. Four 3’s in a row to close out the gold medal game. And that last one which was kind of a ridiculous shot even by my standards. It’s like top 2 for sure.”

“It’s like top two for sure,” Curry said. “I think the OKC game, even though it wasn’t a championship game it was still kinda one of the Mike Breen double bang. Just a loud shot in our rise as a team.”

Curry was at his best in the Olympics and brought his best for the national team. 

Golden State Warriors will begin their NBA 2024-25 season against the Portland Trail Blazers on 23rd October at the Moda Center.
