Steph Curry and Team USA are getting ready to play one of the most difficult tournaments in the world of sports. The 2024 Paris Summer Olympic Games are around the corner and the American team is set to reach glory again and win the gold medal in the upcoming basketball tournament.
Curry already drew a lot of attention when he arrived in Las Vegas earlier today. Following a disappointing season with the Golden State Warriors, the four-time NBA champion is now teaming up with major stars like LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Joel Embiid, and Kawhi Leonard, to name a few.
The Chef is taking this challenge with all the seriousness it demands and is putting in a big effort to be ready when the Olympic tournament starts. A video shared today shows Curry working on his handles, his reaction, and, as usual, his shooting skills.

"He's reversing the aging process,still full of vigor and energy...wow Steph!" one fan said.
Steph Curry's mom sends a message ahead of the Olympics
Steph Curry will try to relive old glories with Team USA this year. He previously played in two World Cups, winning gold on each occasion. Curry will make his Olympic debut at 35, but as one of the greatest point guards ever, that shouldn't make a difference for him.
His mother Sonya sent a motivating message to Steph ahead of this big event, reminding him to stay focused on the ultimate goal.
"Praying for strength, focus, skill, and protection! I'm so proud of you! Stay focused on the goal... GOLD! I love you," Sonya Curry wrote.
Steph Curry is one of the greatest players of his generation and winning an Olympic gold medal would be a terrific way to close his chapter with Team USA.
