Overview
- Talks over Kuminga’s restricted free agency have yielded no significant traction since the weekend, according to The Athletic’s Anthony Slater.
- The Sacramento Kings are viewed as the most aggressive suitors for Kuminga’s services, with the Miami Heat also seen as a realistic destination.
- Golden State has shown no willingness to lower its asking price, reportedly seeking a young player plus a first-round pick in any sign-and-trade deal.
- NBA base-year compensation rules limit the Warriors to receiving back only half of Kuminga’s new salary if they execute a sign-and-trade under current cap restrictions.
- If no agreement is reached beforehand, scheduled face-to-face meetings at the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas will serve as the forum for final negotiations.
