USA Basketball head coach Steve Kerr revealed that Stephen Curry personally decided to run a pick-and-roll with LeBron James to hit a crucial three-pointer in the final moments of the game against France.
In the gold medal game between the United States and France at the 2024 Olympics, Stephen Curry made four 3-pointers in the final three minutes to seal the win for the United States. Notably, one of those 3-pointers was requested by Curry during a timeout, as he called for a pick-and-roll with LeBron James.
"U.S. men's basketball coach Steve Kerr said Stephen Curry asked for a pick-and-roll with LeBron James during a timeout to hit a crucial 3-pointer to beat France: 'I said, OK, let's do it.'"
It can be said that the United States' victory depends entirely on him.
Curry wanted to run a clear-side pick-and-roll with James, and Kerr didn't deny his request in this high-pressure situation. They are among the greatest and smartest players in NBA history, and every coach would trust them to get the job done, and they did.
