In an announcement that will go down as one of the most emotional moments in franchise history, Golden State Warriors legend Steph Curry has stunned fans and left head coach Steve Kerr speechless with a major, heartfelt decision that will forever impact the legacy of the Warriors—and the game of basketball.A Legendary Chapter Comes to a Close
Speaking at a surprise team event at Chase Center this afternoon, Curry officially announced that the 2025–26 NBA season will be his last.
“It’s time,” Curry said, fighting back emotion. “This game has given me everything—more than I ever imagined. But now, it’s time to give more to my family, my community, and the next generation. I’ll always be a Warrior, on and off the court.”
The room fell silent as teammates, staff, and fans processed the news. Coach Steve Kerr, who’s guided Curry through four NBA championships and countless unforgettable moments, was visibly emotional.
“I don’t really have the words,” Kerr said afterward. “Steph changed this franchise, changed the league, and changed lives. Coaching him has been the greatest privilege of my career.”
A Farewell Tour Begins
With this announcement, the 2025–26 season becomes the official farewell tour for Steph Curry—the man who revolutionized basketball with his limitless range, humility, and leadership. Plans are already in motion to honor him in every NBA arena he visits.
The Warriors are also expected to unveil a commemorative campaign titled “Thank You, 30”, which will include special jerseys, tribute nights, and community initiatives led by Curry himself.
