Curry's extension influences Green and Butler's future with Warriors
Summary

Stephen Curry has agreed to a two-year, $116 million contract extension with the Golden State Warriors. Following Curry's commitment, both Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green expressed interest in retiring with the organization. Their current contracts total $137 million, and potential sacrifices may be necessary to facilitate their desire to remain in Golden State. The Warriors are not expecting to contend this season but could be positioned to pursue free agents next summer if key players take smaller deals.
