Steph Curry wants to be 'lifer' with Golden State Warriors
· Yahoo Sports
After eight seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron James opted for free agency, quickly becoming the prize of the 2026 offseason. While multiple teams made their pitches to the future Hall of Famer, James made his decision to join Jaylen Brown, Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid in Philadelphia with the Sixers. Following a whirlwind summer, headlined by James' free agency, Steph Curry was recently asked about his former Olympic teammate's decision.
In a recent interview with CNBC, Curry was asked if he's thought about testing free agency like James. The two-time Most Valuable Player quickly shot the idea down, saying he would like to be a "lifer" with the Golden State Warriors.
