Golden State have tied up one of their young guns for the next four-years, agreeing to an extension with point guard Stephen Curry that will see him paid roughly $11-million per season. The deal will take effect from next season when Curry’s current rookie deal expires.
The player tweeted the news about an hour ago.
The Warriors consider Curry a vital part of their rebuilding plans, and a piece that they can move forward with – along with injured center Andrew Bogut – despite Curry’s own struggles with ankle injury over the past couple of seasons. Curry has long maintained a stance that wished to remain with the organization, and wanted to get a deal out the way so it would not become a distraction throughout the season.
