According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the stalemate between Jonathan Kuminga and the Golden State Warriors continue, but some progress has been reached.

Golden State has upped their offer to three years worth $75 million and does include a team option. This is an upgrade compared to the two-year, $45 million offer Kuminga recently declined.

One of the main reasons as to why Kuminga declined their last attempt was due to not enough money and a team option being for the second year.

As of late, the 22-year-old has been questioning whether the Warriors actually want him around their organization or not.

Kuminga is not budging off his stance of wanting a fully guaranteed deal, or a two-year deal that includes a player option.

His representatives did present the Warriors with a three-year, $88 million deal with a player option. However, Golden State is not comfortable with giving that much money to Kuminga, who they see as an up-and-down player, when they have other roster issues.

According to The Athletic’s Sam Amick, the continued belief coming from the Sacramento organization is that Jonathan Kuminga wants to be a King.

This is revving up even more due to the off-and-on talks between the Golden State Warriors and the 22-year-old.

Reportedly, Sacramento was ready to send a 2030 first-round pick and Malik Monk to Golden State for the superstar prospect. This would have saw Kuminga sign a three-year, $63 million contract.

Whether it is the Kings or another team, to acquire Kuminga, it would have to come through a sign-and-trade.

Kuminga only appeared in 47 games last season. During those appearances, he averaged 15.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 2.2 assists.

In the end, Kuminga wants a larger role than the one he currently has with the Warriors. It’s believed he would get that if on the Kings.

According to multiple reports, spearheaded by ESPN, it has been found out that Jonathan Kuminga is very much against the two-year extension the Golden State Warriors offered him.

He would rather take the $7.9 million qualifying and test his worth in the next offseason. Golden State wanted him to agree to a team-option and giving up his inherent no-trade clause, so that they have a better chance of trading him when they want.

Not only does Kuminga not want to be on a team-friendly deal, but the 22-year-old has no desire to be traded mid-season.

Kuminga has until October 1st to sign the qualifying offer.

According to Jake Fischer, the Warriors are interested in a potential sign-and-trade involving Josh Giddey and Jonathan Kuminga. This comes at a time where the Chicago Bulls are also at an impasse with one of their young, promising players.

“I can report that there have been multiple teams who have reached out to Josh Giddey’s representation about having interest in Josh Giddey. Golden State is one of them.

“Golden State would be interested depending how the machinations go in some type of Josh Giddey-Jonathan Kuminga sign-and-trade, to my understanding,” said Fischer.

How long have the Warriors had interest in Giddey? Since 2021 when the Oklahoma City Thunder selected him with the sixth overall pick, just one pick ahead of Golden State’s pick.

“The Warriors were prepared on draft night, way back when in 2021, for Jonathan Kuminga to go #6 to Oklahoma City. And they were ready to take Josh Giddey #7,” added Fischer.

Both Giddey and Kuminga are looking for long-term deals that see them making close to $30 million per year. Chicago and Golden State are not fond of that.

It’s unclear what else would be thrown into this potential deal, but the groundwork is set surrounded around Giddey and Kuminga – two promising players of the National Basketball Association.
