The courageous performance against France is still something that Warriors star Stephen Curry watches, he reveals

Perhaps no one seized the Paris Olympics stage more so than Golden State Warriors and Team USA star point guard Stephen Curry. Curry did not get off to the hottest start to Team USA’s run in France, but the Warriors’ former NBA MVP made his presence known down the stretch, turning in back-to-back iconic performances in the final two games vs. Serbia and France to net his home country the gold medal.

In particular, it was his performance in the final three minutes in the gold medal game vs France that raised eyebrows around the international stage, as Curry hit several threes to close out the French national team, including one late over two defenders.

Recently, Curry stopped by CNBC and admitted that he still indulges in watching his own highlights from that contest.

“Seven-game series, it’s a long build-up. This was just one game, 40 minutes, can you get it done? And, the France game, the gold medal game in France. That last three minutes was storybook stuff,” said Curry. “It still hasn’t really sunk in. I mean, winning gold, we expected to do that, we knew it was going to be hard, but how did it happen? I still watch some highlights.”

Curry would be forgiven for taking a moment to recognize his greatness the way basketball fans worldwide did as he eviscerated the French national team down the stretch.

Can the Warriors maximize Stephen Curry’s final years?
