Curry and Payton Jr. are expected to sign the Warriors with the minimum salary. This is the league consensus

On August 7, 2025, according to a reporter from ClutchPoints, Gary Payton Jr. and Seth Curry will sign the Warriors with a minimum salary.

The Warriors have been unable to complete the lineup this summer, mainly because Jonathan Kumingga's contract issue has not been properly handled. According to earlier reports, the Warriors plan to keep Kumingga in the new season's lineup, and he can choose a quotation of 45 million in two years or 7.9 million in one year.

Once the Kumingga problem is processed, the Warriors will quickly complete several free agent signs.

In addition to Al Horford and Dantoni Melton, who have previously reached an oral agreement, Payton and Curry Jr. are expected to sign a basic salary with the Warriors, which is a general consensus in the league. Since the free market opened, the above four people have not completed signing contracts with any team, which also confirms the oral agreement with the Warriors.

The Warriors bring back Kumingga, and after signing these four, their lineup will reach 14 people.

24-25 season, Seth Curry played 68 games for the Hornets, averaging 6.5 points, 1.7 rebounds and 0.9 assists per game, and a three-point shooting percentage of 45.6%.

Payton Jr. played 62 games for the Warriors, averaging 6.5 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game, and shooting percentage of 57.4%.
