Steph Curry has played a crucial role for Team USA this summer, fielding tough questions about the Golden State Warriors. Recently, he made waves by suggesting that it would be difficult for him to remain with the team if they were to fall to the bottom of the NBA standings.
“I’m taking things one step at a time, to protect my happiness and maintain authenticity on the court. Ultimately, I will make decisions that are in my best interest and support my career goals. Winning is important to me,” Curry expressed. “Simply put, if the team is not competitive and has no aspirations to improve, it would be challenging for me to stay. However, I believe that scenario is unlikely to materialize.”
Curry also opened up about the difficulty of seeing his teammate Klay Thompson depart for Dallas in the recent offseason.

A New Chapter for Steph Curry
The Golden State Warriors are facing a new challenge unseen during Curry’s tenure. Following a playoff absence last season, some speculate that the team’s reign may be ending. They find themselves in NBA limbo, leading to suggestions of a full rebuild. Nevertheless, with Curry, Draymond Green, and promising young talent still on board, the team is committed to climbing back up the Western Conference ladder. Recognizing Curry’s elite status in today’s league, the Warriors aim to maximize their opportunities while he remains at his peak.
Is Curry a Lifelong Warrior?
In the modern NBA, few superstars spend their entire careers with a single team. While Curry has expressed his desire to be a Warrior for life, this aspiration hinges on the team remaining competitive. It’s improbable for a player of his caliber to stick around for a full rebuild at this stage of his career. With these factors in play, the future of the Warriors’ organization appears increasingly uncertain.
