2024 Topps Now Olympics Autographs Gold #27C Stephen Curry Signed Card (#1/1)

Encapsulated and graded GEM MT 10 by PSA, with Autograph Certified and graded GEM MT 10 by PSA/DNA (115611361). Golden State Warriors icon and United States men's national basketball team leader Stephen Curry has signed this incredible Topps Now Olympics Autographs Gold collectible in blue ink, adding his iconic jersey number "30" to his on-card signature. This singular piece celebrates Curry's meteoric performance against France in the gold medal match of the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics men's basketball tournament, with the four-time NBA Finals champion pouring in 24 points in the United States' 98-87 victory over France. "Ce diable nommé Curry nous fait mal!" ("This devil named Curry is hurting us!") was the famous quote shouted by French television commentators in the midst of Stephen Curry's shotmaking heroics. Curry nailed eight 3-pointers in the gold medal game, including four in the final two minutes and 11 seconds of the contest. This majestic outpouring sparked Curry's iconic "Night Night" celebration, captured in intense and vivid detail on this superb, wholly unique piece. The "Night Night" celebration has become Curry's signature, with athletes ranging from Lionel Messi to Ousmane Dembélé to Sabrina Ionescu paying homage to Curry's indelible aura.

Distributed via the print-on-demand Topps Now brand, this piece is one of only four different standalone autograph subjects from this release. Considering that he was the only member of that quartet who was making his Olympic debut and that his performances over the final two games of the tournament included some of the most indelible memories of the XXXIII Olympiad, this is perhaps the most desirable single-subject signed card included in this popular release. Curry's signature, hard-signed onto the obverse, is expertly placed and elegantly struck, while the intense cardfront image recalls the passion and glory that comes from playing in the colors of one's home nation. A statement on the card affirms the manufacturer's guarantee of authenticity for the piece's content and serves as the item's COA. The limited-edition piece is serial-numbered "1/1." The card displays an incredibly sharp, apparently never-touched manner of appearance befitting its laudatory grading assessment.
