Stephen Curry is coming off a career season, and now he is ready to chase another championship with a cast that includes familiar faces and young newcomers.

After becoming NBA scoring champion for the second time, Curry wants to ride the momentum his Golden State Warriors had gained down the stretch before the season ended abruptly in a play-in game against Memphis.

“I know how we operate and we have a crop of amazingly talented, high-potential energetic young guys who have a lot to accomplish in this league and we hopefully can marry the two in terms of what we do on the floor every single night,” said Curry, who averaged 32.0 points.

The Warriors will get going with everybody eagerly awaiting Klay Thompson’s return after two years on the sidelines nursing a pair of major injuries — first, a torn ACL in his left knee suffered during Game 6 of the 2019 NBA Finals, then a torn right Achilles tendon that also needed an operation after he got injured in November before the start of training camp.

“Don’t have a set date but I don’t anticipate anything before 12 months. That’s at least till late November, early December,” Thompson said. “And then it’s kind of just a feel thing, you know. It’s a lot of conditioning that I have to do but there is an endpoint and that’s what excites me.”

For now, Curry is counting on his supporting cast of Draymond Green, Andrew Wiggins, emerging star Jordan Poole and veteran Andre Iguodala among others.

Curry has plenty of unfinished business. The two-time MVP completed a $215 million, four-year contract extension in August that takes him through the 2025-26 season when he will be 38. It is his second $200 million deal.

The Warriors open the season on the road against LeBron James and the Lakers next Tuesday night.
