Steph Curry had his Olympic moment on Saturday night in Paris as the sharpshooter hit four threes down the stretch against France to lock up the gold medal for Team USA.

Curry was electric in his first Olympic games, helping lead a comeback against Serbia in the semifinals before his flurry of treys in the title game.

While his late game heroics were incredible, it was one picture from earlier in the matchup that got people talking online. Framed like a painting you'd see in the nearby Louvre in Paris, it shows France's young 7-foot-4 superstar Victor Wembanyama closing out on Curry just after he's released a high-arcing shot.

The phrase "it's art" is generally overused. Not in this case.
