With his career nearing its end, the 2024 Paris Olympic Games might be the last chance for him to capture the coveted Olympic gold. Asked about whether he will play for Team USA next summer, Curry expressed his will to play for Team USA's head coach Steve Kerr, who he plays for in Golden State as well.

"That's the one piece of a resume coach always likes to joke that I don't have. He's already kind of recruiting for next season, or next summer. Rooting the guys on in the World Championships this year, in the World Cup. I know they'll represent the USA well and take home gold," Curry talked about the upcoming tournament on ESPN's NBA Today.

"I have no idea what next summer looks like. It's obviously an extra bonus that Coach Kerr is leading that charge. I'd love to play for him any day of the week, so let's see how it goes come summer '24," the superstar guard told.

Known as arguably the best shooter in NBA history, Curry won two World Cup gold medals in 2010 and 2014.
