Yaxel Lendeborg's sudden emergence may well extend Stephen Curry's legendary career at the Golden State Warriors.
Writer Peter O'Keefe argues that Golden State Warriors rookie Yaxel Lendeborg's rapid emergence could motivate Stephen Curry to prolong his NBA career. Lendeborg scored a career-high 37 points to lead Golden State to a 124-112 victory over the L.A. Clippers on Sunday night.
O'Keefe suggests that Lendeborg's strong play eases the burden on the 38-year-old Curry, who recently signed a two-year extension. The writer believes that having a productive player on a cost-effective four-year rookie deal could keep the Warriors competitive and encourage Curry to play beyond his current deal.
