Stephen Curry attended postgame festivities in a sweatshirt that said "night night" in French, referencing the celebration he hit while sinking three-pointers in the fourth quarter of Saturday's gold medal contest.

"I'm in the club, now. I ain't a rookie no more," Curry said about winning a gold medal in his Olympic debut.

"I feel phenomenal," James said after the win. "We got that gold... that's what we came here to do, and we did it."

Anthony Edwards joked after the game that Curry "just got to Paris."

"About three days ago, but we so glad he got here," Edwards said.

Curry, whose three-point shooting was relatively limited during the group stage, helped power Team USA to victory in the gold medal game with 8-of-13 shooting from behind the arc.

Tyrese Haliburton, who did not play in the gold medal game, joked about his limited role in Team USA's win:

Men's basketball tournament MVP James and the rest of his teammates celebrated with champagne after receiving their medals.

USA Basketball will hope the celebrations continue tomorrow after the women's Olympic team takes on France in their own gold medal match Sunday at 9:30 a.m. ET.
