Stephen Curry Commits to Warriors With Two-Year Extension

Overview

• Curry agreed to a reported two-year contract extension worth about $116 million that keeps him under Golden State’s control through 2029 and includes a player option for the final season.
• Warriors coach Steve Kerr publicly said Curry told him he would not move his family and that he “didn’t want to go anywhere,” framing the decision as driven primarily by family and stability.
• Multiple media reports cite league sources saying the Warriors offered a larger two-year max under the over-38 rule and that Curry accepted roughly $20 million less than that full max.
• Taking a smaller deal reduces the Warriors’ immediate luxury-tax burden and preserves some roster and cap flexibility for the team’s choices in the next one to two offseasons.
• Curry’s commitment reinforces his status as the franchise face after four championships and two MVPs and would let him approach 20 seasons with a single team if he plays through 2029.
