Overview
- Golden State’s latest proposal, reported by ESPN, is a three-year, $75.2 million deal with a team option in Year 3 and $48.3 million guaranteed over the first two seasons, along with a request to waive inherent no-trade protection.
- Kuminga’s camp continues to seek a player option or full guarantees and has signaled willingness to accept a lower average salary in the low‑$20 million range if a player option is included.
- Team sources also floated a fully guaranteed three-year, $54 million alternative, and they rejected a one-year “souped‑up” qualifying‑offer concept that would have led to unrestricted free agency next summer.
- Sign‑and‑trade frameworks from the Suns and Kings included multi‑year deals with player options and a starting power‑forward role for Kuminga, but the Warriors declined the proposed returns.
- With training camp approaching and an Oct. 1 deadline to accept the $7.9 million qualifying offer, the stalemate has delayed broader roster moves, and veterans Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green have checked on Kuminga’s plans and mindset.
