Stephen Curry considers contract extension with Golden State Warriors
Summary

Stephen Curry became eligible for a two-year, $136 million contract extension with the Golden State Warriors this past Saturday. The 38-year-old guard has not yet signed the deal and stated he is waiting to commit to further years in the Bay Area. Speculation suggests Curry may follow the path of Jalen Brunson and Victor Wembanyama by taking a salary discount to provide the franchise with greater roster flexibility. Analysts point to the potential for significant salary cap space next summer if Curry opts for a lower valuation through the 2028-29 season. While his decision remains pending, current reporting indicates an intent to remain with the Warriors. The team also enters next summer with Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green on the final years of their respective contracts.
