Stephen Curry could either extend his contract this summer, with an additional season, or wait a year and give himself two more seasons to go through 2028. Ultimately, he chose to take the $62.6 million this offseason.
So, he is under contract until 2027 with the Warriors, for 178 million dollars, which allows him to exceed the 500 million earned in salary since the beginning of his career. And to finish his contract at the same time as Draymond Green…
“It's no different from my perspective. You're sensitive to the position, the opportunity, the support of the people who have accompanied your journey,” reacted Golden State's point guard. “I've always said I wanted to play for one team my whole career. So it's a good thing to put the extension issue aside and be able to focus completely on basketball and the upcoming season.”
“The standard has not changed, nor have the expectations”
A season that will be special since it will be the first without Klay Thompson and that it will be necessary to bounce back after a last exercise finished in “play-in”, without playoffs therefore. For the third time in five years, the Californians went on vacation in April, without playing the first round.
Do the 2022 NBA champions really still have what it takes to fight for the title? Only time will tell. But one thing is for sure, Stephen Curry is still hungry and that's why he extended his contract.
“It's always about winning and taking the necessary steps to give yourself a chance. The standard hasn't changed, nor have the expectations”warns the 2024 Olympic champion.
