At 35 years old and after 14 NBA seasons, there are not many things left to achieve for Stephen Curry. However, the Golden State Warriors star doesnāt seem to see it that way.
Weāre talking about not only one of the greatest players of all time, but also one of the toughest competitors in sports history. Even when things donāt go to plan, Steph simply refuses to quit.
Thatās why weāve seen him bounce back and win his fourth ring with the Dubs in 2022, when many thought glory days were part of the past in San Francisco. However, thereās something Curry hasnāt achieved outside the NBA yet and he looks interested in doing so.
Stephen Curry says he could chase Olympic gold with Team USA
Even though he has multiple rings and countless individual accolades to show off, Curry doesnāt boast an Olympic gold medal yet. Therefore, the Warriors star may be considering representing Team USA in Paris 2024.
āThatās the one piece of the resume [Steve Kerr] always likes to joke that I donāt have,ā Curry told Malika Andrews of ESPN, via Sports Illustrated. āSo heās already kinda recruiting for next summer. But Iām rooting the guys on in the World Championships this year, in the World Cup, I know theyāre gonna represent the USA well and take home gold. I have no idea what next summer looks like, it obviously is an extra bonus that coach Kerr is leading that charge, and Iād love to play for him any day of the week, so weāll see how it goes come summer 2024.ā
