Stephen Curry has expressed a desire for his contract situation to remain low-key as the Golden State Warriors approach training camp next week. With Curry now eligible for a two-year, $136.7 million extension, he emphasized the importance of focusing on basketball rather than contract negotiations. “The idea of getting back to work is exciting,” he stated, adding, “I don't want there to be no drama.”
Curry has one year remaining on his current $62.6 million deal and has indicated that the Warriors have presented various options for his extension, including maximum money and more flexible structures. He remains unhurried, saying, “It’s going to happen at the right time, once I have all the information I need to make the decision that is right.” He also noted that his contract situation is tied to the team's dynamics and future direction.
Despite the ongoing discussions, Curry maintains a calm demeanor, reiterating his goal to spend his entire career with the Warriors. He has assured that the contract talks are not a distraction for him or the team, as he continues to focus on the upcoming season, where he averaged 26.6 points last season, underscoring his significance to the franchise.
