NBA playoffs: Warriors win Game 5 over New Orleans; play Houston in West Finals

Stephen Curry has agreed to sign a one-year, $62.6 million contract extension that will tie him to the Golden State Warriors through the 26-27 season. Curry had $115.3 million remaining over the next two seasons on his contract.

The Warriors have privately and publicly maintained the position that they will offer Curry the $62.6 million year onto his contract if he wants it. Curry will be playing in his age-38 season on that extension. Curry is represented by Jeff Austin.

Curry previously signed extensions with the Warriors in 2012 and 2021, as well as a free agent contract in 2017.

In 74 games last season, Curry averaged 26.4 points, 4.5 rebounds and 5.1 assists in 32.7 minutes.

The Brooklyn Nets have signed head coach Jacque Vaughn to a multi-year extension through the 26-27 season. Vaught became the Nets head coach when Brooklyn fired Steve Nash earlier this season.

Vaughn has gone 32-19 while leading Brooklyn this season. He was previously 7-3 as the Nets interim head coach in the NBA bubble during the completion of the 2020 season.

Brooklyn players have praised Vaughn for his leadership, attention to detail and focus on defense since he took over for Nash. The Nets will now have him leading the sidelines as they retool their roster following trading Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving at the 2023 trade deadline.
