It appears that the Golden State Warriors and All-Star guard Steph Curry might come to terms about a long-term extension soon.

Speaking with reporters on Monday, Curry admitted that he has ongoing talks with the team about a new deal.

“We have conversations,” said Curry when asked whether he’ll sign an extension with the Warriors. “Everything’s on the table right now.  

Curry added that he’s letting the negotiations “play out the way they should”, but reiterated that he wants to be a Warrior for life.

The 32-year-old sharpshooter inked his last deal back in 2017, signing a maximum five-year, $201 million contract with the Warriors. If the organization decides to offer him another extension before the 2020-21 season starts, Curry would be eligible to get three more years and $156 million.

Despite the big numbers, it’s certainly a no-brainer for Golden State to give Steph Curry such an extension. Since they drafted him with the No.7 pick in 2009, Curry revitalized the franchise and established it as arguably the most dominant team in the past decade.

During his time with the Warriors, Curry led the team to three NBA titles and five NBA Finals appearances. He also earned numerous individual accolades, including the two NBA MVP Awards.
