Steph Curryβs New Extension Puts Him in Elite Company With LeBron James, Kevin Durant
si.com/nba/steph-curry-s-new-extension-lebron-james-kevin-durant-earnings
Quick Glance: Curry and Warriors Agree to $62.6M Contract Extension
- Stephen Curry has agreed to a one-year, $62.6 million extension, keeping him with the Warriors through the 2026-27 season.
- The contract is limited by the NBA's over-38 rule, which prevents long-term contracts for older players to maintain salary cap integrity.
- The Warriors experienced offseason changes with the loss of Klay Thompson and the release of Chris Paul, while GM Mike Dunleavy Jr. added players like Kyle Anderson and Buddy Hield.
- Curry excelled last season with an average of 26.4 points per game and was named Clutch Player of the Year, although the Warriors missed the playoffs.
