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"

Curry's Heroics in the Paris Olympics

The Paris Games marked Curry's Olympic debut. Playing under Warriors head coach Steve Kerr, Curry helped Team USA rally from a 17-point deficit in the semifinal against Serbia, scoring a tournament-high 36 points. He set an Olympic record for most 3-pointers made in a knockout game.

In the gold medal game against France, Curry scored 24 points and drilled four straight 3-pointers in the final three minutes. His "Golden Dagger" was instantly recognized as one of the greatest moments in Olympic basketball history.
