Overview
- Kuminga turned down a reported four-year, $90 million sign-and-trade offer that included a player option in the final year
- He has indicated a clear preference to join the Sacramento Kings in a starting power forward role next season
- The Warriors have countered with a two-year, $45 million proposal and warned they may end talks and retain him on the $7.9 million qualifying offer
- Sacramento’s sign-and-trade pitches have featured a conditional first-round pick and rotation players but have failed to satisfy Golden State’s demand for an unprotected pick
- Phoenix’s package of Royce O’Neale, Nick Richards and four second-round selections has also fallen short of the Warriors’ compensation requirements
