STEPH CURRY’S OLYMPIC FINALE WAS LEGENDARY: FROM QUIET TO CLUTCH IN PARIS
Paris 2024 was meant to be Steph Curry’s long-awaited Olympic debut—and possible farewell. And after a quiet start that had fans and critics alike questioning whether the moment had passed him by, Curry did what legends do: he delivered when it mattered most.
For the first four games of Team USA’s Olympic campaign, the Golden State Warriors superstar looked almost… ordinary. He averaged just 7.25 points per game, shooting a modest 36% from the field, and seemed content playing a supporting role behind scoring leaders like Jayson Tatum and Kevin Durant. The rhythm wasn’t there, the shots weren’t falling, and whispers began to swirl: Was this really the same Steph Curry?
But in the knockout stage, with a gold medal on the line and the world watching, Stephen Curry flipped the script—and the switch.
In the semifinal against Slovenia, Curry erupted for 29 points, hitting dagger threes from every angle imaginable, while dishing out 6 assists and grabbing 4 rebounds. His signature flair was back—step-backs, quick-trigger threes, and a spin move that sent Luka Dončić the wrong way drew roars from the crowd and reignited belief in the magic only Steph can conjure.
Then came the gold medal game vs. France, and Curry didn’t just show up—he took over. With Team USA struggling early and France jumping out to a first-quarter lead, Curry unleashed a 31-point masterpiece, shooting 63% from the field including 7 made threes. He was unstoppable in transition, lethal off the ball, and ran pick-and-rolls with Anthony Davis to perfection. Each time France made a push, Steph answered—whether it was a no-look three, a deep logo bomb, or a momentum-killing assist.
By the time the final buzzer sounded and Team USA stood atop the podium again, Steph Curry had etched his name into Olympic lore. He finished the tournament averaging 30 points per game in the final two contests, silencing doubters and cementing his legacy as one of basketball’s most transcendent performers—even on the international stage.
This wasn’t just redemption. This was a reminder.
At 36, after four NBA titles, two MVPs, and the shattered records that define his NBA career, Curry’s Olympic finale proved one thing: when the lights are brightest, and the stakes are highest, Steph doesn’t fade—he shines.
And in Paris, he left no doubt. 🥇🔥
