Lacob says Warriors intend to offer extensions or new deals to Thompson, Green and Durant
"All good things cost a lot," he said simply.
Joe Lacob of the Warriors said that the NBA champions will try to sign Kevin Durant, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson to new contracts this summer.
Per ESPN, For the Warriors, that is going to start being a very expensive proposition as Durant, Thompson and Green are all in line for massive new contracts in the next few years. Lacob said Friday night that he intends to offer extensions or new deals to all of them this summer.
"All good things cost a lot," he said simply. "We're going to try to sign Klay and Draymond to extensions this summer. They've earned the right to do whatever they want; maybe they want to wait until free agency. I can't control that. But we'll do whatever we can to keep them.
"We've proven that if we think we're competing for a championship, we'll be in the luxury tax. No one wants to be, but we expect to be. All I can tell you is we're going to sit down and do our planning on how we're going to improve the team for the future and setting ourselves up in the future. And it could go a number of different ways."
