Overview
- GM Mike Dunleavy said Tuesday he is confident Stephen Curry wants to finish his career with the Warriors and added the team would discuss a trade if Curry requested one.
- Curry will become eligible on Aug. 29 to sign a two‑year contract extension worth up to $136.7 million that would keep him under contract through the 2028–29 season.
- The Warriors ran a continuity‑first offseason by re‑signing Draymond Green, Kristaps Porziņģis, Al Horford, De'Anthony Melton and Gary Payton II rather than landing a major external star.
- Ownership and the front office say they made aggressive trade offers this summer, retained draft capital and other assets, and plan to use that flexibility to pursue upgrades during the season if needed.
- In related league moves, the Cleveland Cavaliers have shifted from pursuing Jonathan Kuminga to exploring a sign‑and‑trade for Peyton Watson and are reportedly shopping Dennis Schröder to create the cap room required.
