Steph Curry didn’t just show up at the 2024 Paris Olympics—he dominated.
The Golden State Warriors superstar proved to be the savior Team USA needed, stepping up in the semifinals against Serbia and once again in the gold medal game against host nation France.
In the final showdown, Curry took control when it mattered most. With France threatening a late comeback and closing the gap to just two possessions, Curry unleashed a barrage of three-pointers that put the game out of reach. He finished the game with an impressive 24 points, five assists, and eight 3-pointers, cementing his status as the hero of the match.
One of the game’s most memorable moments came after Curry hit the game-sealing shot. As the ball swished through the net, Curry turned to the crowd and silenced them with his signature “night, night” celebration—a gesture that has become synonymous with putting opponents to bed.
But Curry didn’t stop there. He took his trolling to another level by wearing a hoodie adorned with an Eiffel Tower emblem and the words “NUIT. NUIT.” across the chest. For those unfamiliar with the language, “NUIT. NUIT.” is French for “night, night,” a clever nod to his iconic celebration and a playful jab at the French fans who had hoped for a different outcome.

Curry’s performance throughout the Olympics was nothing short of spectacular. He averaged 14.8 points per game while shooting a scorching 47.8 percent from beyond the arc. Although Curry is no stranger to delivering clutch performances and dazzling fans with his shooting prowess, his Olympic debut may have been one of the finest displays of his career.
From his game-changing plays on the court to his cheeky off-court antics, Curry’s presence in Paris left an indelible mark on the 2024 Olympics. His ability to rise to the occasion and deliver when it counts most is what sets him apart as one of the greatest players of all time. As the dust settles on the Paris Games, fans and critics alike will remember Curry’s brilliance—not just for his basketball skills, but for the swagger and confidence he brought to the global stage.
