Stephen Curry Signs Two-Year, $116 Million Extension With Warriors
He accepted about $20 million less than the two-year maximum to give the team short-term payroll flexibility and keep the core intact.
Overview
- Stephen Curry agreed to a two-year contract extension worth $116 million that keeps him with Golden State through at least the 2027–28 season.
- Curry took a below‑max deal to prioritize winning now and to signal his intent to finish his career with the Warriors.
- The team has kept its veteran core in place by re-signing Draymond Green to a one-year, $27.7 million deal and bringing back Kristaps Porziņģis on a reported two-year, $40 million contract.
- Porziņģis was ruled out indefinitely to open training camp and Curry’s right knee is still being monitored, leaving player availability as the chief near-term concern as the team travels to Hawaii for camp.
- By accepting a roughly $20 million haircut, Curry created short-term cap room and preserved maneuverability for a midseason reset or a larger roster retool in 2027, a choice shaped by the NBA rule that limits over-38 players to two-year extensions.
