Stephen Curry’s clutch 3-point shooting helped Team USA held off a late rally from France and win the Olympic gold medal in men’s basketball.

Curry led the Americans with 24 points — all of them coming on his eight 3-pointers — in the 98-87 victory. Kevin Durant added 15 points and LeBron James totaled 14 points, 10 assists and six rebounds.

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama did his best to carry France to the near upset with 26 points. France closed within three points in the fourth quarter but couldn’t complete the comeback thanks to Curry’s torrid shooting.
