The moment of truth is staring at the hoops fans’ faces. After the 2023 FIBA WC embarrassment, LeBron James & Co. promised to assemble a super team for the Paris Olympics over a year ago. And, finally, fans await the overpowered US team to have a go that the much-cherished gold medal. Speaking of the gold medal, the man himself, Usain Bolt, dropped a special message for Stephen Curry & Co. ahead of the challenge. Moreover, Ayesha Curry burst into a bundle of joy as she shared the 8x Olympic gold medalist.

The official IG handle of the Golden State Warriors shared Bolt’s video message addressing Steph and Team USA. The Jamaican athlete said, “Usain here, just wanna say congratulations on making the Olympic team. I know you guys are gonna dominate. I just want to wish you all the best. I know you’re going to do great. I also want to say I’m a fan. I’ve been watching you for years, dominating the sport, doing extremely well. So I know you guys are going to the Olympics and do great.” 

Importantly, he didn’t stop at that. Bolt also made a light-hearted banter at the Baby-faced Assassin. He added, “All the best in the Olympics and in the future, if you need some pointers on that arc, to get that three better, hit me.” Ayesha, on the other hand, shared the video on her stories and wrote, “@stephencurry30 gwaaaan big up yuhself!” 

After a series of intense exhibition games, the team has finally reached Paris. Importantly, Team USA is determined to win the gold, especially Stephen Curry. During a press conference after their arrival, a reporter asked Kevin Durant & Steph, who they were looking forward to facing. Steph simply said, “Whoever’s in the gold medal game,” leaving KD to say, “Great answer.”

Usain Bolt’s unwavering support to Stephen Curry

This isn’t the first time when the Jamaican superstar openly showed his support for Curry. Whenever the Dubs superstar pulled off a magic on the court, Bolt never failed to acknowledge it. Notably, in the last NBA season, Stephen Curry dropped a game-winning three-pointer against the Phoenix Suns, leaving the hoops nation stunned.

With less than 3 seconds on the clock, Steph collected a tough inbound pass from Brandin Podziemski and dropped a dagger for a 113-122 win. Following the effort, Bolt took to his IG stories and shared a few pictures from the game, along with a note. It read, “Steph Curry Game-Winner. That was a great win @warriors @stephencurry30.”

The 4x NBA Champ hasn’t fired enough in the pre-Olympic exhibition games, except for a flurry against Serbia, dropping 24 points, and sinking 6 three-pointers. It was all LeBron James, who was making the clutch plays. Especially, in the last two games against South Sudan and Germany, King James saved the team from embarrassment. So, Steph has to make the most of it in the actual tournament. Notably, he will face Serbia again and Steph can bring out his flurry again.
