Stephen Curry, like all great NBA players, only finds joy and pleasure in winning.
Nothing else is acceptable when you’ve reached that level, and you can tell when he’s having a good time on the court.
Notably, that was the case in Team USA’s scrimmage vs. Canada.
The Golden State Warriors star was at his best during the matchup, and he may have given us one of the new viral images on NBA Twitter.
Shortly after a bucket, the four-time NBA Champion fell and made an iconic pose towards the camera, and it didn’t take long before fans flooded social media with related memes (via NBA).

As crazy as it may seem, this is actually the first time that Curry played for Team USA in the Olympics.
He’s a perfect 18-0 as a member of USA Basketball, helping the team win a couple of FIBA World Cups.
Then again, for whatever reason, he hadn’t had an opportunity to suit up when it came to the ultimate competition in sports.
Now, he’s expected to lead the team to the gold medal alongside his archrival, LeBron James, and his former teammate, Kevin Durant.
Needless to say, this has prompted plenty of nostalgia among NBA fans and players alike.
We’re witnessing the end of an era in professional basketball, and the league we once knew will no longer be the same.
Fortunately for the fans, the old guard is leaving the league in great hands, as the new generation is as talented as those who are walking away.
