Updated · 2026-27 season

Stephen Curry is on the books for $62,587,158 in 2026-27, the 1st largest cap hit on the Golden State Warriors roster and 28.3% of the team's $220.8M payroll.

That ranks 1st among the 434 players with a 2026-27 salary on the books, and eats 37.9% of the $165.0M salary cap.

The deal has 3 seasons left on it, running through 2028-29, worth $178,443,158 in guaranteed money.

The money declines rather than climbs, from $62,587,158 down to $60,156,000, a 4% drop that makes the back end easier to absorb in a trade.

Not every year is locked in: 2028-29 player option.

The option year belongs to the player, not the team — he decides whether to take the money or return to the market, so the team cannot count on it either way.

At 38, he is on the far side of the aging curve, and the deal still has him on the books through age 40.

No teammate earns more — he is the highest-paid player on the roster for 2026-27.

He is one of 15 players on the Golden State Warriors' books for 2026-27, whose 2026-27 salaries add up to $220,838,432.

Golden State Warriors sit at $220.8M in payroll and are currently classified Tax Payer, with -$12.3M of room below the first apron.
