August 10 will go down as one of the most memorable days in U.S. men’s Olympic basketball history. In 2024, Steph Curry and his teammates won the gold medal at the Paris Olympics.
The Americans took down France 98-87, and heroics from Golden State’s star guard led the way. Just a day later, the women’s team also captured gold, beating France. It was the fifth straight gold for the men and the eighth for the women.
On Sunday, Curry celebrated the anniversary of the win. He posted a series of pictures on Instagram, including one with LeBron James and Kevin Durant that had fans buzzing.
“A year ago today. We did that! Loved hooping with my guys, representing our country, and bringing home the 🥇. Memories for a lifetime. Avengers forever. #nuitnuit”
