Overview

• Jonathan Kuminga has publicly declared that he wants to be a primary scoring option and multiple-time All-Star rather than a secondary piece
• Golden State holds matching rights on Kuminga’s restricted free agency and can pursue a sign-and-trade if it cannot meet his role demands internally
• The Miami Heat have emerged as the leading trade partner after missing out on Kevin Durant and are targeting Kuminga as a young two-way wing
• The Warriors face salary cap constraints under the NBA’s new collective bargaining agreement due to commitments to Stephen Curry, Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green
• Golden State is also exploring frontcourt upgrades by gauging interest in Charlotte’s Mark Williams and scouting Duke prospect Sion James
