Stephen Curry drops major bombshell regarding his potential retirement from the Warriors and the NBA

Following their elimination from the NBA Cup, the Golden State Warriors’ chances of a title in 2024/25 took a huge hit. Though the Warriors have a solid 14-10 record nearly one-third of the way through this NBA season, Golden State sits a modest fifth in the Western Conference after watching their legendary guard Klay Thompson bolt for the 16-9 Dallas Mavericks over the summer.

But Stephen Curry is still a Warrior — and as long as Steph is around, Golden State will be a threat to any team in the Association. However, Curry’s NBA future is in question, mere months after he inked an extension through the 2026/27 season.

Curry: I am nowhere close to retiring

As he converts his off-court dealings into a business empire and continues to raise his four 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren alongside his wife Ayesha, Stephen Curry probably wouldn’t be faulted for pondering retirement in the near future. But the 36-year-old, set to become the NBA’s first $60 million per year man, does not feel like the end is near, five months after he helped Team USA to a gold medal at the Summer Olympics in Paris.

“There are two ways to really go out in basketball: either you’re forced out or you go out on your own terms,” Curry told Bloomberg News in a recent interview. “I hope to be in a situation where you consider how your body feels, what it takes to get ready for games, and the offseason training that goes into preparing yourself for an 82-game season. There will be a clear sign that it’s time to hang it up. I don’t want to be the one that’s limping up and down the court trying to keep up with the young bucks, but I don’t think I’m anywhere close to that yet.”

Though Curry battled a number of ankle injuries early in his career, improved training and physical preparation saw the former Davidson guard take his game to new heights beginning in 2014. Curry has won two MVP awards to go with his four NBA championship rings; he is the NBA’s all-time leader in 3-pointers made, and his 91 percent free-throw rate is the highest in league history.

Curry’s chances of a fifth NBA title may be waning as the Warriors age and try to bed in exciting younger players like Jonathan Kuminga, but Golden State’s one remaining Splash Brother has more to achieve — including a possible run at the 30,000-point milestone.
