Let's Go Warriors

08/29/2026

Steph Curry is eligible to sign another Warriors extension starting today.

I think he should wait.

Not because Steph should leave Golden State. And not because he “owes” the Warriors a discount.

The biggest reason is simple: why decide before you have more data?

In our recent conversation with UCSF orthopedic surgeon Dr. Nirav Pandya, he explained something fascinating about Steph’s “runner’s knee”: managing Curry may not simply be about reducing his minutes.

It’s about the load within those minutes.

Mike Dunleavy Jr. also acknowledged this week that the Warriors have to manage Steph’s knee, other injuries and age, calling the situation “delicate.”

So why determine Steph’s next salary now?

If the knee remains an issue this season, maybe next summer becomes an opportunity for a “soft reset” — Steph adjusts his salary and the Warriors gain more flexibility to put a championship roster around him.

If the knee is healthy and Steph is still Steph? Great. Choose the number accordingly.

Either way, waiting gives Steph + the Warriors something valuable:

More information. More flexibility. More optionality.

And the goal isn’t saving ownership money. It’s giving Steph the best possible chance to chase Ring No. 5. 🏆

I broke down the full argument — including Dr. Pandya’s insight on Steph’s knee — over at our Substack, letsgowarriors-dot-com.

What would you do: SIGN NOW or WAIT? 👇

Rich will be here for the play-by-play as we start to get back into the Valks’ season, as we have been super-busy with NBA free agency, then the annual American Century golf tourney following Steph Curry around for 72 holes, then the Vegas Summer League championship run, catching up on all the cap sheet analysis with Draymond re-signing and the Warriors essentially passing on DeMar DeRozan: https://youtu.be/YTj2Ipm2ki4 …and, well, important family obligations, too. Whew!

We even just did a whole livestream on what the next steps might be in terms of the NBA’s February deadline vs. next off-season Summer 2027: https://youtube.com/live/dxv57y3zZqM

We also see…

Georges Niang was already a Warrior nine years ago! 😂

I dug up this footage I filmed during his original stint with the Golden State Warriors in 2017. His stay was brief, but Niang immediately seemed to fit in — especially while joking around with Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant.

There’s more to basketball than wins and losses. Sometimes it’s the chemistry, camaraderie and feeling of belonging that make someone seem like a natural part of a team.

Nine years later, it has all come full-circle. Georges is back, and the jokes with No. 30 can resume right where they left off. 🫶💙💛

Did you remember Niang’s original stint—and what are you most excited to see from him this time?

Give him a S/O in the Comments 👇

Flash back to 10/7/2017, the China trip: easymoneysniper, Wardell Curry, and Georges Niang are cracking up at the back of the line, waiting to get into the arena for Media Day in Shanghai. Some kind of delay had the whole team just hanging out — and that’s when I knew Georges was gonna fit in right away with the Dubs.

Took me a while to dig this up from our YouTube channel, but I remember thinking at the time: “Idk who this Niang guy is, but he might be a Warrior for life.” Unfortunately his stay was brief — after training camp he played for Santa Cruz, never got called up, then got picked up by Utah, soon becoming the enemy.

Sure, times were simpler then, but I always wanted to show there’s more to basketball, more to being part of , than wins and losses. There’s nothing like that feeling of being part of a team — put the narratives aside and enjoy the intangibles. It’s come full-circle, nine years later. Georges is back with the ! (And nah, I don’t expect KD ever to come back — that’s IYKYK.) But let the jokes and camaraderie with 30 resume, and we’ll pick up that chemistry right where we left it…

The Golden State Warriors are signing Brandon Williams — and the clues were there. 👀

Michael Scotto of HoopsHype first reported Golden State’s interest. From there, we connected Williams’ close relationship with De’Anthony Melton to the Warriors’ cap sheet and asked whether the Dubs already had him “in their back pocket.”

That was our conclusion on July 13. Now, the prediction has come true.

You can find the original cap-sheet analysis near the top of the Let’s Go Warriors Substack site at letsgowarriors-dot-com — it’s currently the fourth article down:

“Do the Warriors have Brandon Williams in their back pocket?”

What kind of role do you think Williams can play for Golden State?

W’supper, Ballhalla and DubNation! With two straight losses, the Valkyries (25-11) now have to try to hold their No. 2 seed, only a half-game ahead of the Vegas Aces. Not only that, they have not yet beaten the Minnesota Lynx in seven tries dating back to the inaugural season last year.

It’s a step-up retry, this time at Target Center in Minneapolis against Olivia Miles and Napheesa Collier. Can the Valks finally beat them?
