Stephen Curry did more than impress in the fourth quarter of Team USA’s gold medal victory.

The Warriors guard also got the best of Victor Wembanyama’s overwhelming 7-foot-4 frame from beyond the arc Saturday at Bercy Arena to earn his first gold medal — Team USA’s fifth in a row — in a 98-87 victory.

A photo of the moment has got the internet hooked, capturing Wembanyama, who towers more than a foot over Curry, leaping to stop the top shooter from lofting up a shot over him.

“The modern version of David vs Goliath duel…” an X user posted.

Curry continued to have a tear in the fourth quarter, scoring nine points in the closing 10 minutes, to guarantee a first gold medal around his neck.

A bucket from Wembanyama got France within three points of the U.S. in the fourth quarter after the Americans once held a double-digit lead.

Yet, Curry answered with a 3-pointer only 10 seconds later to eventually help revert the lead back to double-digits.

He nailed two more trey balls to create a more comfortable lead, including another miracle shot on a double team with just 35 seconds left to play.

The daggers came with animated celebrations from Curry and teammates, many of whom were mimicking his signature “night night” gesture.

All of Curry’s 24 points came from beyond the arc, scoring 8-for-13 on 3-pointers after just recording nine in the Americans’ comeback win over Serbia in the semifinals.

He also added five assists and one rebound.

The four-time NBA champ and 10-time All-Star previously did not play in the 2016 Rio Olympics and the Tokyo Games.

At 36, Curry chose to play in Paris, as he’ll be 40 by the time the 2028 Olympics roll around.

But now, he has an iconic moment for the books.
