Golden a.k.a. “Steph Curry” was a huge contributor in the Unified Basketball team’s first ever win, hitting several clutch 3-pointers in the victory. One of those baskets helped solidify the game late in the fourth quarter when John Jay started to make a comeback. Golden's ability to shoot the ball long-range makes him very difficult to guard.
