The Confidence Numbers Behind the Warriors' Open Cases
Two of the loudest reports about this roster, the Curry extension and the Porzingis health issue, are both still logged as open, and the sourcing explains why.
HoopsRumors graded its own report of a finalized Curry extension at a confidence score of just 31, with no salary terms attached. The same tracking marks Anthony Slater's report on the Porzingis health issue at 39, still open more than a week after it first surfaced.
What 'Finalized' Doesn't Mean Here
HoopsRumors reported on September 26 that Curry and the Warriors finalized a two-year extension. No salary figure, no option language, nothing beyond the headline has followed in the eleven days since. The report itself carries a confidence score of 31 and a status of open, the same status the outlet gave its September 23 note that no extension decision had been made yet. A report can say finalized and still be graded as unresolved. That gap is the story: fans have a transaction without terms, which is not the same as a deal fans can evaluate.
The Porzingis Thread Hasn't Closed Either
Anthony Slater reported on September 28 that Porzingis remains out indefinitely with a health issue, with no diagnosis attached then or since. HoopsRumors logged that report at a confidence score of 39, still open. NBC Sports Bay Area, through Monte Poole, added on October 7 that the uncertainty could still force Steve Kerr into roster decisions. Eleven days of silence on specifics is not nothing, but it is not a timeline either. Treat it as what the sourcing says it is: open.
Why the Rest of the List Is Paperwork, Not Trades
Everything else in the recent log is small: Miles Kelly's September 27 signing carries a confidence score of 33, Graham Ike's two-way deal from September 21 sits at 30, and the camp cuts and waiver moves around them are already confirmed. None of it touches real money, and the roster's position above the tax line and the second apron is the reason. A team that capped out to keep this group together does not have cap room sitting around for a report to fill. The rumors that matter here are not about who comes in. They are about whether the two biggest names, Curry's deal and Porzingis's health, resolve into something fans can actually read.
Is Stephen Curry's contract extension finalized?
HoopsRumors reported on September 26 that Curry and the Warriors finalized a two-year extension, but no salary or option terms have been disclosed, and the report carries a confidence score of only 31.
What is wrong with Kristaps Porzingis?
Anthony Slater reported on September 28 that Porzingis remains out indefinitely with a health issue; no diagnosis has been reported, and NBC Sports Bay Area said on October 7 that the uncertainty could still shape Steve Kerr's roster decisions.
