United States star Steph Curry put on an absolute shooting clinic in Saturday's Olympic gold-medal game against France.

Curry, who finished with 24 points on eight made three-pointers, buried five of his eight made threes in the fourth quarter to help clinch the victory for the United States, 98–87.

His final three of the game, a dagger to clinch the win for the United States, led to him directing his iconic "night-night" celebration at the pro-France crowd in Paris.
