Steph Curry said goodnight to Draymond Green during Olympic stab in the back – NBC Sports Bay Area & California

Steph Curry said goodnight to Draymond Green during Olympic stab in the back – NBC Sports Bay Area & California

Even in a crowded arena at the Paris Olympics, Steph Curry managed to find Draymond Green.

Curry looked in Green’s direction in the crowd as he made his infamous “goodnight” gesture after hitting a game-winning three-pointer in the fourth quarter that gave the U.S. team a nine-point lead and effectively ended the game against France.

Green showed up at Bercy Arena to cheer on his teammate, confident that Team USA would pull away after taking an eight-point halftime lead, but the resilient French team stayed hot on their heels until Curry and Co. slammed the door in the game’s final seconds.

The outspoken Green was overly critical of coach Steve Kerr’s rotation decisions in the semifinal against Serbia, but he largely didn’t use his phone during the final.

Although Curry started the Olympics slowly, he performed brilliantly in the semifinals and finals of the Olympic tournament, scoring a total of 60 points in the last two games.

Despite being one of the best players of his generation, Curry had never been to the Olympics until this year. Now the Warriors legend has that elusive gold medal, the only thing missing from his resume.

Curry’s gold gives him the special status of being one of the few players in NBA history to have won at least four NBA titles and one Olympic title.
