On August 7, Beijing time, after their 2022 title, the Warriors have been unable to find a second superstar to partner with Curry. Aiming for the highest stage, they aggressively chased elite talents like Giannis Antetokounmpo, LeBron James, Jaylen Brown, and Anthony Davis during this summer.


However, the Warriors ultimately did not acquire a second star. The roster heading into the 2026-27 season is almost unchanged from last season, which finished with a 37-45 record and missed the playoffs.
Injuries were a major reason for the Warriors' poor performance, but the team must now make crucial decisions for the near future. The first priority is Curry, who becomes eligible for an extension on August 29, with the option to sign a two-year, $136.7 million contract.
The entire league is watching how the Warriors handle this 38-year-old star guard. Rumors are circulating, with speculation on whether he will sign a new deal or decline an extension to pressure the front office.
But the core fact remains: Curry will not leave the Warriors. All the trade rumors online that put Curry in trade simulators are completely unfounded.According to sources from ClutchPoints, Curry wants to stay with the Warriors and will not request a trade. He will definitely play the full 2026-27 season for the team.

However, if no agreement is reached after the extension window opens at the end of August, Curry will become an unrestricted free agent next offseason. As things stand, both Curry and the Warriors are interested in completing an extension this offseason.
The specific terms of Curry's new contract are entirely up to him, and the Warriors are ready to meet all the demands of their franchise star. If Curry wants the full two-year, $136.7 million extension through the 2028-29 season, the Warriors will accept it;if Curry chooses to take a pay cut to help the team, general manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. is fully on board.
There is plenty of external noise about the team's future direction, but Curry remains loyal to the Warriors. All signs indicate that he will likely officially sign the extension in September.
