"Bro don't want to win anymore?"

X users japta (@DubsBetterrr) and EmpireJeff (@EmpireJeff_) were ecstatic with Steph Curry's decision to extend for another year after the 2025-26 season.

Meanwhile, Tyler Conway (@jtylerconway) and SleeperHoops (@Sleeper_Hoops) highlighted the trade rumors involving a team-up with LeBron James and the LA Lakers being washed down the drain after this report.

"Goat staying another year," the fan posted.
"You mean to tell me the Warriors aren't going to trade him to the Lakers for Ben Simmons and pocket change? Shocking," the fan posted.
"Rip the LeBron-Steph team up," the fan posted.
"Steph isn't getting traded ya'll ... move on," the fan posted.

Curry will be entering his 16th NBA season with the Warriors. Last season, the 10-time All-Star averaged 26.4 points (45.0% shooting, including 40.8% from three-point range), 5.1 assists and 4.5 rebounds per game.


Boston Celtics legend talked about Steph Curry's future with the Golden State Warriors

Steph Curry was drafted seventh overall in 2009, which later turned into one of the most important moves made by the franchise in its history. With Curry's remaining years being counted upon, Celtics legend Paul Pierce highlighted how he views him remaining with the franchise for as long as he can.

"He's going down with that ship," Pierce said on an episode of the Ticket & Truth Show. "It's all legacy, everything right now for him is icing on the cake. I saw Kobe, he lost his last couple years but he still went hard, didn't he? He wasn't complaining. That's Steph, he carried that in Golden State."
