Steph Curry’s extraordinary performance in the final moments of the 2024 Paris Olympics was so remarkable that he was immediately drug tested after Team USA’s thrilling 98-97 victory over France.
During a Fanatics Fest seminar, Kevin Durant and Anthony Edwards shared their unusual experience following the Americans’ dramatic win, revealing that all three NBA stars were subjected to drug tests.
“After winning the gold medal, Durant and I had to undergo a drug test,” Edwards recounted. “We couldn’t fully celebrate in the locker room because Durant, Steph, and I were required to take the test.”
Anthony Edwards says Steph Curry got drug tested after the gold medal game in Paris. He also mentioned that he and KD were also tested.

Curry sealed Team USA’s gold medal by sinking four 3-pointers in the last three minutes of the game, cementing his place in Olympic history. His sensational performance followed an impressive 36-point effort against Serbia, keeping the team’s gold-medal hopes alive. The back-to-back standout performances were so extraordinary that they led to an unexpected drug screening.
This unusual post-game memory is now something Curry, Durant, and Edwards can laugh about for years to come.
