The Golden State Warriors plan to open contract extension discussions with Steph Curry this summer, general manager Mike Dunleavy confirmed Friday. Curry, 38, has one year remaining on his current deal worth more than $62 million and becomes extension-eligible in late August. Curry said last month he would welcome long-term talks. Dunleavy left little ambiguity about the organization’s intentions. “Yeah, that day will come,” said Dunleavy. “But I think we’ve always stated we want Steph to finish his career here, be here for as long as he wants. I’m sure those conversations can happen, and you can predict where they’ll be going. Yeah, I don’t see under any scenario where we don’t want to figure out a way to have him finish here.” Golden State’s desire to retain Curry long-term comes as the franchise navigates a transitional offseason. The team finished 37-45, missed the playoffs, and faces pressing decisions on Draymond Green’s player option, free agent center Kristaps Porzingis, and injured wings Jimmy Butler and Moses Moody.
