All the power, as it usually does, resides in Stephen Curry’s hands. Saturday, Aug. 29, marks the first day the 38-year-old superstar can sign a max extension with the Golden State Warriors. As he prepares for his 18th season, Curry is entering the final year of his current contract, worth nearly $63 million. The Warriors have made no secret, through general manager Mike Dunleavy’s repeated public statements over the last year, that they would like to get another deal done with Curry before the new season begins. They know he’s the franchise, and they know what he represents to the organization and the Bay Area as a whole.

Stephen Curry and his wife Ayesha have quietly sold their massive Atherton estate for $29.1 million, making it one of the major real estate moves for the Golden State Warriors superstar.

NBA Courtside: Matthew Dellavedova tells a story about having to go to the hospital after guarding Steph Curry in game 3 of the 2015 finals: “I mean, obviously it’s like an impossible task chasing Steph around. He never gets tired. Bogut and Draymond and David Lee are trying to kill me on screens. Bogut is my assistant coach now on Sydney. I just remember coming to timeouts and Mike Miller, James Jones are just like grabbing me by the shoulder saying, “You got to get every loose ball.” And I’m head’s like wobbling around…. So I get in the locker room, they do the talk, but I start cramping. Steve and UK take me back there. They like cut my tights. They’re trying to rub ice. My quads are cramping. My hamstrings are cramping. So you can’t stretch one or the other. I’m just in a world of hurt. Then they like carry me and put me in the ice bath up to like here and I’m just sitting there and slowly the cramps kind of go away. And then we only had 1 day between the games. And so I think Steve and the doctor were like, “Yeah, your best shot at getting ready for the next game is going to the hospital and just getting an IV overnight.” (Via @Rjeff24) — 8/19/2026 x.com
The Draymond Green Show: Draymond defends Steph Curry in response to the recent statements made by Monta Ellis and Jeff Teague "That's just not how you win championships, you don't win championships by 'ahh man move this player and this player'... it's not just the basketball, it's the makeup of the person and how does that guy lead?... and so I think these statements are null and void and like kinda irrelevant... I think it also takes away what Steph Curry is as a leader and quite honestly, that's just not how it goes." — 8/15/2026 x.com

Pressed further on whether he could envision Stephen Curry ever raising the idea of leaving, Lacob's answer sharpened considerably. "No, no, no. I don't think that is even a thing," Lacob said. "This is just a clickbait thing from all these people that do this kind of thing these days, and there seem to be a lot of them. I don't believe any of that is true. I'm very close with Steph — he lives right near me, he's incredibly happy with the organization, with his life… I've never heard a word about that, and I can't imagine it. We certainly don't want him to go anywhere. I just think people are completely making a bunch of crap up." — 8/13/2026 Yahoo! Sports
