Overview
- Multiple outlets report rival executives expect Golden State to move Kuminga once he becomes trade‑eligible on Jan. 15.
- Kuminga has slipped out of Steve Kerr’s rotation after a shooting slump, including three straight DNP‑CDs following a 1‑for‑10 night on Dec. 6.
- Reporting points to shifting suitors: Phoenix is less interested, Sacramento is monitoring, and Brooklyn has shown little interest.
- Golden State has evaluated using Kuminga in a pursuit of Pelicans wing Trey Murphy III, though New Orleans’ stance remains unclear.
- A new report says Chicago would consider a Nikola Vucevic‑for‑Kuminga swap, a financially workable framework once Kuminga becomes eligible.
