The Golden State Warriors have a Jonathan Kuminga puzzle to solve. They’ve extended offers, but Kuminga is holding out for something better. With negotiations at a standstill, Golden State remains the lone team without a significant move this offseason.
But this situation isn’t just about whether Kuminga gets paid. It’s about whether Golden State sees him as part of their core going forward. That decision becomes even more important if someone like Giannis Antetokounmpo enters the trade picture.
Right now, the Giannis trade buzz has cooled off, but the door isn’t completely shut. If Milwaukee stumbles early in the season, the possibility of him being moved could resurface. Until then, the Warriors reportedly prefer to hold on to Kuminga unless Giannis actually hits the market.
“The Warriors aren’t rushing to move Jonathan Kuminga unless it’s for full value — they want to keep their assets in case the market for Giannis Antetokounmpo heats up.”
