Steph Curry had two big games at the right time

Steph Curry didn't have the best start to the 2024 Paris Olympics basketball men's tournament. The four-time NBA champion took a back seat and let other players like Kevin Durant, LeBron James and Anthony Edwards lead the team against other opponents.

Once the semifinal started, Curry was on a mission, scoring 17 points in the first quarter of the game. The Chef finished the game with 36 points, including the 3-pointer that gave Team USA the 87-86 lead with less than two minutes left on the clock.

Curry kept the same energy today, although his shots didn't fall as early as they did against Serbia. Anyway, he finished with 24 points, more than anybody else on the team, becoming a serious candidate for the Olympic MVP award.
