Overview
- Jonathan Kuminga has indicated he wants a four-year, $90 million deal with Sacramento that includes a guaranteed starting role next to Domantas Sabonis and Keegan Murray.
- Phoenix proposed a sign-and-trade involving Royce O’Neale, Nick Richards and four second-round picks but failed to include the unprotected first-round pick Golden State demands.
- The Warriors’ two-year, $45 million offer carries a second-year team option and requires Kuminga to waive his implied no-trade clause, a condition he has declined.
- Salary-cap apron restrictions and commitments to Stephen Curry, Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green limit Golden State’s flexibility to accept higher-value trade returns.
- If sign-and-trade negotiations end, Kuminga must either commit to the Warriors’ two-year deal or sign the $7.9 million qualifying offer to become an unrestricted free agent in 2026.
