Having Never Played in the Olympics, Stephen Curry Finally Breaks Silence for 2024 Due to One Major Reason

It has been a decade of long-awaited success for the Golden State Warriors star. 4 Championships, 2 MVPs, 1 Finals MVP, leader of the All-Time 3-pointers made in the NBA, and the ability to boast an 8-time All-Star.

In addition, Curry might add another achievement to his name by representing his country in the Olympics 2024. Curry has never participated in the Olympics for the USA team for various reasons. The Warriors star in a recent interview with reporter Marc Stein gave an open talk on the chances of him joining the US national team.

American Reporter Marc Stein asked Steph about his interest in joining the USA team for the 2024 Olympics. Curry said, “I?m more than excited about the opportunity to do it?.

He added “They all say it?s not even close in terms of the vibe and the atmosphere and the buildup and the adrenaline and all that. I don?t know what the chances are, because you don?t know what?s going to happen, but I would love to have that experience at some point for sure.”

With Steve Kerr announced as the Head Coach of the Men’s Olympics team, the chances of Curry playing in the Olympics are highly possible. Curry also mentioned, “I played on those two world championship teams and everybody who?s ever experienced both is never shy to mention how much different the Olympics is.“
