Soon after Tuesday’s 118-94 loss to the Sacramento Kings in the Western Conference play-in game, Stephen Curry, star player of the Golden State Warriors, said something shocking about his teammates. During an interview after the game, Curry discussed his future with his teammates Klay Thompson and Draymond Green.
“I can never see myself not with those two guys. I understand this league changes, and there are so many things that go into it. … I know they want to win, and I want to win. That’s all I’m worried about. But we experienced so much together. At the end of the day, I know they want to win, and I know I want to win, and that’s all I worry about,” Curry said during the interview.
Thompson is going to become a free agent this offseason, which means he might play for a different team for the first time in his NBA career. On the other hand, Curry and Green still have a few years left on their contracts.
