The 2024 Olympics are over, which means that Steph Curry and LeBron James will be no more to be teammates. However, Curry eliminates the Golden State Warriors from his Instagram bio might suggest otherwise.
Curry made the change Wednesday, via NBA Central.
“In his updated bio, Steph Curry replaced the phrase ‘@Warriors Guard’ with ‘Olympic Gold Medalist,'” the account noted.
This coincides with Curry and James’ joint Instagram post on Wednesday, in which they posted a photo of themselves holding their gold medals with fellow basketball titan Kevin Durant.
Curry and James were instrumental in the United States winning gold this summer, with James being voted Olympic MVP while his counterpart, the jump shooter, made three-pointer after three-pointer to eliminate Serbia and France in the last two games.
Do the two stars say something to the NBA world?
The Warriors may have reason to worry

With the loss of Klay Thompson and the elimination of other big names this summer, Golden State has already been through a tough time. However, the Warriors are hoping that Curry’s gold medal with head coach Steve Kerr strengthens their bond and chemistry, via NBA insider Marc Stein.
“There are certainly challenges ahead. Curry, Draymond Green and Warriors coach Steve Kerr have yet to fully confront the reality that Thompson is no longer part of the organization they all hoped would never leave,” Stein wrote. “The hope now is that the golden summer Curry and Kerr enjoyed together offers them lasting protection for what could be a difficult winter (and maybe even spring) as Golden State continues to reshape itself.”
However, Curry’s experience with James could prompt him to team up with the 39-year-old before it’s too late. While James’ agent Rich Paul has already dismissed the idea of ”The King” going to Golden State, perhaps “Chef Curry” could move to Los Angeles.
It’s unlikely to happen this season, but Curry and James teaming up for the latter’s last hurrah is a scenario most people outside of the Golden State fanbase would buy into.
