Steph Curry opens up about his evolving bond with LeBron James during his Late Show appearance.

Stephen Curry recently shared insights about his evolving relationship with LeBron James during an appearance on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” on Friday.

Curry, who showcased his Olympic gold medal to an enthusiastic audience, reflected on his performance during the Games. He received loud “USA” chants and a round of applause.

After struggling in the early rounds, he focused on positive self-talk and teamwork to improve his game.

He acknowledged the importance of making shots, especially after being questioned about his shooting struggles.

“It’s positive self-talk. We were winning, and I was doing my part—setting screens, playing hard—but I wasn’t making shots,” Curry told Colbert. “I knew at some point I’m going to need to make some shots because that’s why I’m here. After we played Puerto Rico, I was doing an interview, and they were asking me, ‘What’s wrong with your shot?

“Are you worried about it?’ I said, ‘No, we’re winning, and I know a flurry is coming.’ As soon as I said that, LeBron walks behind me and says, ‘Damn right it is.’ That gave me a lot of confidence. It caught me off guard because, you know, I had to get used to liking that guy after all of our battles. Now we’re teammates and friends, but it was a confidence boost, and it came at the right time.”

Curry had a standout performance in the gold medal game against France, scoring 24 points and contributing five assists. James also played a significant role, adding 14 points, six rebounds, and ten assists.

The duo continued to shine in the semifinals, with Curry leading the team to victory over Serbia with a remarkable 36-point game. James recorded a triple-double in that match, further solidifying his impact on the court.

James was named the MVP of the tournament, averaging impressive stats throughout the competition. The chemistry between Curry and James was palpable, and their bond has grown stronger during their time together in Paris.

As the NBA season approaches, fans are eager to see how this friendship will play out on the court. While their shared experiences in the Olympics have brought them closer, both players remain focused on their individual goals and team success.
