Stephen Curry and Kawhi Leonard have each signed two-year contract extensions with the Golden State Warriors and Toronto Raptors respectively, a length shaped by the NBA's over-38 rule. The league rule restricts how teams can structure contracts that extend past a player's 38th birthday, affecting salary and bonus allocation, so stars approaching that age often sign shorter deals.
