Steph Curry couldn’t resist poking fun at France once again by wearing a brutal ‘Nuit Nuit’ hoodie after USA’s Olympics basketball triumph in Paris.
America’s team of NBA superstars captured gold against the hosts in the French capital on Saturday night, with Curry and LeBron James inspiring USA to a 98-87 final victory.
After pulling out a sensational three-pointer which sent fans wild online, the Golden State Warriors point guard could be seen trolling the home crowd with his famous ‘night night’ gesture on court.
And he kept the taunting going later on Saturday night when he was seen wearing a hoodie with the words ‘Nuit Nuit’ emblazoned across the front – French for ‘Night Night’.
American journalist Rachel Nicols shared a video of Curry wearing the hoodie on Saturday night, and American fans absolutely loved his savage choice of clothing.

Team USA men’s basketball WINS the Olympic gold medal as Stephen Curry overwhelms France
One 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 filthy for that.. love it’.
While one simply said: ‘Legend’.
USA was able to hold off France behind 24 points from Curry, as a star-studded group including LeBron and Kevin Durant thwarted a late rally from the hosts.
The Americans led by as much as 14 in the fourth quarter but saw that advantage dwindle to just three after a Victor Wembanyama tip-in with just under three minutes remaining.
From there, Curry caught fire as he hit four three-pointers from the 2:48 mark on to see USA to the gold.

His final dagger came during a broken play with 35 seconds left, when he heaved in a three-pointer over the arms of Evan Fournier and Nicolas Batum to restore the lead to nine.
There was no way back for France, and Curry knew it as he did his famous ‘night night celebration’ – with the last half-minute proving unclimactic for the USA.
‘I’ve been blessed to play basketball at a high level for a very long time,’ he told NBC’s Mike Tirico afterwards. ‘… This ranks very high in terms of the excitement and the sense of relief getting to the finish line.’
