Stephen Curry has secured a one-year, $62.6 million contract extension with the Golden State Warriors, raising his career earnings to over $500 million.

Curry joins LeBron James and Kevin Durant as the only NBA players to surpass this milestone in salary alone.

The trend of rising salaries in the NBA is highlighted, with fewer than a handful of retired players ever exceeding $300 million.

Curry's desire to remain with the Warriors for life is clear, and he aims to end his career as a one-team player.
