Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has agreed on a two-year, $116 million contract extension with the franchise, with a player option in 2028-29, sources told ESPN’s Shams Charania.
On Aug. 29, Curry became eligible for an extension of up to two years and $136.7 million off his current one-year, $62.6 million expiring deal. The Warriors immediately presented him with a menu of options, team sources told ESPN, including max money, slightly smaller pay cuts or the ability to wait and decide later, depending on what the front office could eventually generate with extra flexibility.
Curry, 38, had contemplated the choices for nearly a month and told ESPN on Wednesday that he wanted “no drama” with the team entering the season. The Warriors begin practice next week in Hawaii and open the regular season on Oct. 21 in Los Angeles against the Lakers. Curry, who is entering his 18th NBA season, was limited to 43 games last season because of persistent pain and swelling in his right knee.
He was in San Diego this week at a team function organized by teammate Jimmy Butler and said his body is ready for the start of training camp.
