Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry is on the verge of signing a two-year contract extension worth approximately $136 million, according to a report by ESPN. The agreement, eligible for signature starting Saturday, would tie the four-time NBA champion to the franchise through the 2029 season and all but guarantee he finishes his career with the only team he has played for since entering the league in 2009.
Contract Details and Timeline
According to ESPN reporting, the two-year extension will keep Stephen Curry in a Golden State Warriors uniform past his 41st birthday. Curry’s current deal runs through the end of the 2026-27 season. The new pact will add two additional years, securing his services through 2029 and extending his tenure in the Bay Area to two full decades.

The total value of the extension is projected at roughly $136 million. While the Warriors’ front office navigated a quiet summer marked by missed opportunities to acquire major roster upgrades, securing their franchise cornerstone on a long-term commitment preserves stability for the organization.
Addressing Offseason Uncertainty
Earlier in the offseason, Golden State pursued high-profile targets across the league, including Giannis Antetokounmpo, LeBron James, and Kawhi Leonard, according to league reports. None of those potential trades materialized, leaving the franchise with a roster that prompted speculation about the team’s competitiveness in the Western Conference.
Those quiet months fueled rumors that Stephen Curry might explore a departure to a contender, a possibility that Warriors General Manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. acknowledged during media availability. However, with the upcoming contract extension, those rumors have dissipated, positioning the franchise guard to finish his career where it started.
Roster Adjustments in Golden State
Alongside contract negotiations with their star player, the Warriors moved to adjust their supporting cast for the upcoming campaign. According to franchise announcements, Golden State added players including Williams and Niang to reinforce the roster depth following a stagnant summer transfer window.
