Some people think that the Golden State Warriors’ golden age is coming to an end. Stephen Curry and his team have become one of the best teams in NBA history over the last ten years. In 8 years, they won 4 NBA titles and made it to 6 NBA Finals, taking over the game. The Warriors might not have many more years together, though, since Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green are all getting older.
The Warriors are still the most expensive team in the NBA, even though their dynasty is falling apart. The most recent list of the world’s most valuable sports teams puts Stephen Curry and his team miles ahead of the rest of the NBA. At $8.28 billion, the Warriors are the most expensive NBA team. The New York Knicks are second at $7.43 billion, and the Los Angeles Lakers are third at $7.34 billion.
If you look at the value of all sports teams, the Warriors are only second to the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys ($9.2 Billion). The Warriors’ value has gone up a huge amount because of their recent projects, which have earned them a huge $940 million gain.
Since they bought the team in 2010, Joe Lacob and Peter Guber have made seven times as much money thanks to Stephen Curry and his team’s success over the last ten years. The Warriors have the most fans on social media of any North American sports team. And that’s great for their 37 sponsors, who give the team over $1 million a year. The Japanese company Rakuten also gives the Warriors $45 million a year for the right to put their name on a shirt. The Warriors’ value has also gone up thanks to their new entertainment section and a lot of new construction around Chase Center.
Can the Golden State Warriors keep being the best?
It’s crαzy to think that the Warriors have become more valuable in such a short time than great teams like the Lakers and the Knicks. That shows how much Steph, Klay, and Draymond have changed the world of basketball. This season, on the other hand, has been harder on the Warriors than any other. All season, they’ve had a hard time staying alive and have been hurt a lot. With a record of 27–26, the Warriors are currently 10th in the Western Conference. Many people thought they were done for the season because of how bad they were early on, but Dub Nation is still hopeful that Stephen Curry and his team can make another run at the title this season.
The last few games they’ve played well and started to get things right. The last 29 games of the season will be interesting to watch for the Warriors because they could decide the future of their team. The Warriors might not make the playoffs if Stephen Curry and his team don’t do well. This could end the team’s reign. Steph, Klay, and Draymond will all be going their separate ways because of that choice, and it could also hurt the value of the franchise.
