The Golden State Warriors are aware that the era of their historic core is coming to an end, but they have no intention of accelerating this process.
According to ESPN’s Zach Lowe, the plan is to maximize the remaining years of Stephen Curry’s career, meaning the Warriors won’t opt for “tanking.”
The team must make immediate decisions regarding Klay Thompson in free agency and Chris Paul, who has a $30 million non-guaranteed contract.
Jonathan Kuminga is eligible to sign a rookie contract extension, while the Warriors are expected to explore possible trades involving Andrew Wiggins and, perhaps, Draymond Green.
Thompson has expressed his desire to remain with the only team he has ever known, but has yet to come close to a contract renewal agreement.
Coach Steve Kerr has said he wants Chris Paul for next season too, but this is unlikely to happen with such a high salary.
