Golden State Warriors fans will be relieved to hear what Stephen Curry had to say about his NBA future.
Like many veterans during All-Star weekend, Curry was asked about his thoughts on retirement.
In his 15th season with the Warriors, the 35-year-old guard said he has thought about the end of his career, but he doesn’t think he’s “anywhere close” to being done yet.
“I think about [retirement] all the time,” Curry said after the NBA All-Star Game on Sunday.
“But the thoughts stop because you gotta get ready for the next game and there’s a routine and a cycle that goes where you embrace the now. Eventually, you’ll get to a point where you’ll wake up and whatever your body is telling you and whatever your mind is telling you, ‘It’s time,’ but I don’t think I’m anywhere close to that.”
Curry was called up for his 10th career All-Star Game playing alongside other established faces of the NBA like Los Angeles Lakers’ LeBron James and Phoenix Suns’ Kevin Durant.
Compared to James’s and Durant’s All-Star nominations at 20 and 14 apiece, Curry admitted “10 is nice for sure.”
There’s no doubt that the Warriors superstar still belongs on the court, as Curry is currently averaging 28 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 5.0 assists per game while shooting 42.1% from three-point range.
Though Golden State’s once-glittering dynasty may appear to be quietly fading in recent years, Curry remains the consistent bright spot on an aging team that’s been making more of an effort to embrace its youth.
The 10th-seeded Warriors are 8–2 in their last 10 games and will face the Lakers on Thursday.
“I never take [All-Star nominations] for granted—it’s a reminder of hard it is to be acknowledged as an All-Star every year,” Curry recently told ESPN’s Malika Andrews.
“I think the lesson I’ve learned is not to put any limitations on it, but approach every year like this could be the last year.”
