Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has agreed to a 1-year, $62.6 million contract extension, keeping him with the franchise through the upcoming season. The deal comes as no surprise, given Curry’s pivotal role in the Warriors’ dynasty, leading them to multiple championships while revolutionizing the game with his unmatched shooting.
Curry, 36, is entering his 17th season in the NBA but continues to perform at an elite level. Despite his age, he remains the heart and soul of the Warriors’ offense, averaging 29.4 points per game last season and showcasing his ability to take over games in crucial moments. The extension reflects the Warriors’ faith in Curry’s continued excellence, as well as their commitment to contending for another championship with him at the helm.
While some analysts have questioned the hefty one-year price tag, the Warriors clearly view Curry’s leadership and influence as invaluable both on and off the court. The extension allows the team flexibility moving forward, as it aligns with a possible shift toward the next phase of their roster construction.
With Curry locked in for another year, the Warriors’ championship window remains open as they aim to capitalize on his legendary career.
