Why Steph Curry thinks his Warriors future is a ‘distraction’ ahead of new season
Stephen Curry gives a major update on his new contract with the Golden State Warriors. Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry will officially enter the final year of his contract during the 2026-27 NBA season.
Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has confirmed that he plans to continue his career with the team during the 2026-27 NBA season. The four-time NBA champion will enter the final year of his contract, and will earn a salary of $62.5 million in the upcoming season. Despite his age of 38, Curry remains one of the league's top guards.
Some Warriors fans have expressed concerns about why the veteran guard has not yet signed a new deal with the organization, given the team's lackluster performances since winning the 2022 NBA Championship. However, Curry has dismissed these rumors and stated that his decision to stay with the Warriors is not a distraction from their preparation for the upcoming season.
He added that the team he will be returning to has a lot of familiarity, which will help them perform at their best. Curry hopes that the Warriors can be healthy and show what they are capable of, particularly considering that he missed many games last year. While the decision not to seek a new contract could potentially impact his chances of winning another NBA title, Curry is focused on staying with the team and achieving success in his twilight years.
