Usain Bolt Drops 5-Word Message as Steph Curry’s Warriors Spiral with Fourth Straight Loss

Remember when Stephen Curry stunned the Suns with a last-second dagger and left Usain Bolt raving about it? That was February 10, 2024 — a vintage Chef Curry moment. With just 0.7 seconds on the clock, Curry nailed a jaw-dropping three-pointer to steal a 113–112 win for the Warriors. The moment was so electric that even the world’s fastest man couldn’t stay silent. Lightning Bolt shared a story featuring images from the match, captioned: “Steph Curry Game-Winner. That was a great win @warriors @stephencurry30”. Fast forward to 2025, a rough loss, but nothing has changed in Bolt’s applause for Curry!

“@warriors next season will be greater.” These are the words we saw on Bolt’s story on May 16, 2025, after Steph Curry’s team faced another loss. He shared an image that featured a star player, Stephen Curry,  with a warm smile. Standing across are many warriors like Draymond Green, Kevon Looney, Klay Thompson — and, in a surprise cameo, even track and field legend Usain Bolt himself. Set against a bold blue backdrop, it had the words “Thank You” across the center.

The last match the Golden State Warriors won was on May 6 against the Timberwolves. But in that match, Chef Curry sustained a Grade 1 left hamstring strain during the game, sidelining him for the remainder of the series. Showing belief in his game after injury, Steph had said, “I think they understand the task. We are all in it together. And I love the feedback I got from my guys of understanding what the challenge is.” They might have failed the challenge. 

Without Curry’s leadership, the Warriors faced difficulties in subsequent games. In Game 2 on May 8, they were defeated 117–93; in Game 3 on May 10, they lost 102–97; in Game 4 on May 12, they fell 117–110; and in Game 5 on May 14, they were eliminated with a 121–110 loss. 

This is not the first time, though, that Bolt has sent a message to Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors. Be it Instagram stories or be it videos, the Jamaican has always made sure to push Chef Curry for some extra salt and spice in his matches.

Usain Bolt’s 3-word cry for Steph Curry and Co.

In Game 3 of the 2025 NBA Playoffs between the Golden State Warriors and the Houston Rockets, Stephen Curry delivered a stellar performance, scoring 36 points and providing 9 assists, leading the Warriors to a 104–93 victory. This win gave the Warriors a 2–1 lead in the series. But there was the build-up to this win. The Golden State Warriors commenced with a 95–85 victory over the Houston Rockets in Game 1 on April 20. Stephen Curry led with 31 points, and Jimmy Butler contributed 25 points, 6 assists, and 7 rebounds, establishing a 1–0 series lead.

However, in Game 2 on April 23, the Warriors fell 109–94 to the Rockets. Jalen Green spearheaded Houston’s offense with 38 points, including eight 3-pointers. Guess what, who came around for motivation? The Goat of the track, of course. “WARRRRRRIORS, let’s go!” he hailed, donning a Golden State Warriors jersey featuring a bold circular blue emblem on the front with the words “THE BAY” prominently displayed above the number 30—Curry’s iconic number. Unfortunately, the hail couldn’t stop the Warriors from being eliminated in the playoffs, but do let us know your prediction for this year’s winners.
