San Francisco, CA – July 22, 2025
In a move that has sent shockwaves through the sports world, the Golden State Warriors have signed an unprecedented 19-year contract deal with rising basketball phenom Jalen Rivers, a 19-year-old high school prodigy recently reclassified and eligible for early NBA entry.
The deal, reportedly valued at over $800 million, is the longest and most lucrative contract in NBA history — smashing previous records and raising questions about the future of long-term player agreements in professional sports.
Warriors General Manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. addressed the media today:
> “This is a generational commitment. We believe Jalen is the kind of transformative talent that comes along once in a lifetime. This deal represents our belief in his future — and our willingness to build the next dynasty around him.”
Rivers, who gained national attention with a viral 73-point performance in last year’s high school nationals, said the deal is a “dream come true.”
> “I’ve always looked up to Steph, Klay, and Draymond. To now be the future of the Warriors — it’s surreal,” Rivers told reporters. “I’m ready to work, prove myself, and win championships.”
Industry Reaction
The NBA Players Association has already expressed concern, questioning the implications such a long-term deal could have on player mobility and contract standards. League officials are reportedly reviewing the legality and cap ramifications of the contract under the current CBA.
