Steph Curry couldn’t resist poking fun at France once again by wearing a cheeky “Nuit Nuit” hoodie following the US’s victory at the Paris Basketball Olympics.
The American team of NBA superstars won gold against the home team in the French capital on Saturday night, with Curry and LeBron James helping the US to a 98-87 victory in the final.
After making a sensational three-pointer that sent fans online wild, the Golden State Warriors point guard was seen taunting the home crowd with his famous “good night” gesture on the court.
And he continued to tease him later on Saturday night, when he was seen wearing a hoodie emblazoned with the words “Nuit Nuit” – French for “Goodnight.”
American journalist Rachel Nicols shared a video of Curry wearing the hoodie on Saturday night, and American fans went wild for his bold choice of attire.

One of them wrote: ‘We all need that hoodie’.
Another posted: ‘Goat level trolling’.
A third commented: ‘Shots fired! Lol I love it.’
A fourth concluded: ‘Steph is dirty for that.. amazing’.
While one simply said, “Legend.”
The US held off France with Curry’s 24-point lead, while a star-studded lineup featuring LeBron and Kevin Durant thwarted a late surge from the home side.
The Americans led by as many as 14 points in the fourth quarter, but saw their lead shrink to just three points after a Victor Wembanyama tip-in with just under three minutes remaining.
From that point on, Curry was very successful, scoring four three-pointers from 2:48 minutes in, leading the US to the gold medal.

His final stab in the back came during a broken play with 35 seconds left, when he threw a three pointer over the arms of Evan Fournier and Nicolas Batum to cut the lead to nine.
There was no way back for France and Curry knew that when he delivered his famous “night-night celebration” with the final half-minute not changing anything decisively for the US.
“I’ve been fortunate enough to play basketball at a high level for a long time,” he told NBC’s Mike Tirico afterward. “… This is high on the list in terms of the excitement and the sense of relief that you feel when you cross the finish line.”
