Stephen Curry signs massive $62.6 million extension with Warriors

Stephen Curry has signed a one-year, $62.6 million extension with the Golden State Warriors in what is the largest single-season contract in NBA history to date, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. 

With this new extension, Curry will join LeBron James and Kevin Durant as the only $500+ million earning NBA players in history.

ANALYSIS: Curry’s new contract now aligns with Draymond Green’s, running through the 2026-2027 season. It remains to be seen if head coach Steve Kerr, whose contract runs through the 2025-2026 season, will also sign a one-year extension with the team to align his contract with stars Green and Curry.

Even entering his age-37 season, Curry remains formidable as ever. The Golden State Warriors superstar point guard has had a fruitful summer, winning an Olympic gold medal with Team USA with an iconic performance in the gold medal game against hosts France. 

Golden State enters the new NBA season with a new group around Curry. They lost Warrior legend Klay Thompson in free agency to the Dallas Mavericks. The Warriors replaced Thompson with capable surrounding pieces in Kyle Anderson, DeAnthony Melton, and Buddy Hield as they try to contend in the tough Western Conference.
