SAN FRANCISCO (AP) --- Stephen Curry has agreed to a two-year contract
extension worth $116 million that would take him through the 2028-29 season, a
person with direct knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on Friday
night.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team had not announced
the terms of Curry's contract. Curry was eligible to command up to $136
million, so he is giving his team a discount as he backs up his longstanding
commitment to finish his career with the Warriors.
Golden State general manager Mike Dunleavy said last month he was optimistic of
getting something done with the two-time MVP and NBA career leader in
3-pointers.
The 38-year-old Curry will complete a $62.6 million extension he signed for the
2026-27 season in August 2024 before the new contract takes him through 2029
--- which would be his 20th season.
Curry averaged 26.6 points, 4.7 assists and 3.6 rebounds but was limited to 43
games last season because of injuries. He has won four NBA titles with Golden
State, most recently in 2022.
ESPN first reported Curry's new deal.
