Steph Curry delivered a stellar performance during Saturday’s gold medal game, and comedian Jimmy Fallon captured one of the most memorable moments.
Curry scored 24 points in Team USA’s 98-87 victory over France on August 10, with 12 of those points coming in the final 2:48 of the fourth quarter, securing the win for his team.
While Curry’s game was filled with iconic shots, one that went viral occurred with 4:33 remaining in the second quarter. After sinking a three-pointer, Curry turned to the front row and pointed two fingers at Fallon, who appeared to snap a photo of the moment. The image quickly gained traction online, adding to the legend of Curry’s performance.
