Warriors extension makes Curry the first NBA player to top $600 million in on-court earnings

HEAVY

Stephen Curry agreed to a two-year, $116 million extension with Golden State through 2028-29, with a player option for the final season. He is the NBA’s first player to top $600 million in career on-court earnings; ESPN’s Bobby Marks estimates his total at about $652 million.

Golden State offered Curry the maximum two-year extension he was eligible for, worth $136.7 million. ClutchPoints’ Brett Siegel reported that Curry chose roughly $20 million less to prioritize the team’s cap flexibility. The new deal averages $58 million annually. Yossi Gozlan projected up to $64 million in Warriors cap space for summer 2027, depending on decisions about Draymond Green and Jimmy Butler.

Curry said he still believes the Warriors can contend alongside Draymond Green and coach Steve Kerr. He played 43 games last season, averaging 26.6 points and 4.7 assists; his knee issues were reportedly no longer a concern heading into the new season.
