Warriors Say no for a Trade Requests of a 94 Million deal…
For those wondering where Steph Curry will be playing basketball next season, it will be the Golden State Warriors; the same team he’s played the previous 15 seasons with.
Curry and the Warriors made that much clear when the two sides agreed on a one-year, $62 million extension on August 29.
The deal silences any mounting skepticism that Curry would spend next season in Golden State. After winning gold in the Paris Olympics next to good friend LeBron James, fans had been manifesting a team-up between the two all-time greats.
Curry is coming off of his 15th NBA season, which have all been spent with Golden State. He averaged 26.4 points, 5.1 assists, and 4.5 rebounds in 74 regular-season appearances last year.
The one-year extension is the maximum the Warriors could have offered Curry, given the NBA’s over-38 rule. That prevents teams from housing players at age 38 or older on four-year (or longer) deals.
So, it will be three more guaranteed years for Curry and Golden State.
But whether or not he’ll play them all out in his only ever NBA home is to be determined. Next season will be only the second of Curry’s career without Klay Thompson, who left for the Dallas Mavericks in free agency.
