Stephen Curry Set to Become First NBA Player to Earn USD 60M in Single Season With New Warriors Extension
The Warriors underwent significant changes this offseason. They lost longtime teammate Klay Thompson to the Dallas Mavericks and waived Chris Paul. The team brought in players like Kyle Anderson, De'Anthony Melton, and Buddy Hield to retool the roster. Though these new additions have some uncertainties, the Warriors hope they can support Curry in leading the team back to playoff contention.
Curry signed the extension, highlighting his desire to continue his career with the Warriors, a team he has led to four NBA championships. The one-year extension was necessary due to the NBA's over-38 rule, which limits contract lengths for players nearing that age. This rule ensures Curry, who turns 38 in March 2026, can stay with the team without violating the league's collective bargaining agreement.
The extension reinforces Curry's status as the face of the Warriors and gives the team more time to build a competitive roster around him as they navigate this transitional period. General manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. now faces the challenge of finding the right pieces to complement Curry and maximize the team's chances of returning to the NBA Finals.
