Overview

• Golden State’s latest known proposal is a three-year, roughly $75.2 million deal with a team option on the final season, with earlier offers including two years at $45 million with a team option and a three-year, $54 million fully guaranteed pact.
• Aaron Turner, Kuminga’s agent, continues to press for a player option on the back end and has publicly framed a qualifying-offer season as leverage for 2026 unrestricted free agency.
• Turner told ESPN’s Hoop Collective that the qualifying offer is “real,” while The Athletic’s Sam Amick has reported it is viewed by Kuminga’s camp as the most likely path absent more guaranteed control.
• Rival interest remains active, with reported sign-and-trade discussions involving the Kings and Suns and indications Golden State is reluctant to send Kuminga to Sacramento.
• Training camp opens Sept. 29 and the Oct. 1 qualifying-offer deadline looms, with veteran voices including Stephen Curry, Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green urging the front office to keep Kuminga in the fold.
