• Jonathan Kuminga said he is "at peace" with the outcome of negotiations and indicated he will not seek role clarity from Steve Kerr, telling Andscape he "doesn’t waste" energy on that.
• Reports from the team’s open practice described Kuminga as largely disengaged from fan-day activities, fueling fresh scrutiny of his buy-in.
• Draymond Green publicly urged the organization to "figure out how to unlock" Kuminga, emphasizing the 23-year-old’s importance to a deep but aging roster.
• Multiple outlets highlighted that trade exploration could be revisited once he becomes eligible in January, with writers floating hypothetical deals such as swaps for Corey Kispert or Deni Avdija.
• Analysts say growth areas include getting to the foul line, on-ball defense and catch-and-shoot threes; last season he averaged 15.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists on 45.4% shooting and 30.5% from deep.
