“He’s the best shooter who ever lived”: Steph Curry and the Olympic Window for 2024

One of the more notable missing names from Team USA’s Olympic run this past summer in Tokyo was Warriors guard and perennial MVP candidate Steph Curry. Curry opted out of the Olympics after Golden State’s heartbreakers against the Lakers and Grizzlies in the play-in. It appears that Steph chose to take the offseason to rest and gear up for another title run next year and beyond: He just signed a four-year extension with the Warriors and with his skillset, certainly has the longevity to be a dominant force in the league for years to come. But will he be playing in the 2024 Olympics?

Brown Could Ride Nigeria to Head Coach Gig 

The American men are not off to the start they wanted, losing both of their opening exhibition games to Nigeria and Australia before salvaging a victory Tuesday against Argentina.

And in their first loss, the Warrior coaching staff was under the microscope – but it was not on US assistant coach Steve Kerr. Rather, it was on a coach with NBA Finals experience in Golden State and Cleveland, Warriors associate head coach and Nigeria men’s basketball head coach Mike Brown.
