Anthon Edwards reveals that Steph Curry and Kevin Durant were drug tested after the Olympics

One of the lesser-known facts about basketball is how often players are drug tested after great performances. Sometimes players don't even get the chance to celebrate a big moment because they are drug tested. Unfortunately, that's exactly what happened at the Paris Olympics for Steph Curry, Kevin Durant and Anthony Edwards.

During an interview at Fanatics Fest in New York, Anthony Edwards revealed that he, Steph Curry and Kevin Durant did not have the opportunity to celebrate winning a gold medal because they had to undergo drug testing.

“We couldn't even really celebrate in the locker room because he, Steph and I had to do some kind of drug test or something,” Edwards said.

Jalen Rose, who conducted the interview with Anthony Edwards and Kevin Durant, joked approvingly that Steph Curry should have been subjected to a doping test after his outstanding performance against France.

“It's only right that they gave one to Steph, the way he closed the deal,” Rose said. “It was crazy.”

While many will still complain about the Olympics because their favorite player didn't get enough playing time, it's still special when players like Steph Curry and Kevin Durant have such unforgettable experiences alongside younger players like Anthony Edwards. It only helps that the torch is passed when the older generation is ready to walk off into the sunset.
