[Trade] Warriors have obvious Jonathan Kuminga trade demand after latest Kings reports

[cwebb2002]

lol, and a lot of Warriors fans are all thinking if they keep Kuminga then he can be flipped for Giannis. Meanwhile, Milwaukee won’t even give them Portis for him.

Just shows the only reason the Warriors haven’t shipped him out for peanuts yet is there is a massive difference between how they value Kuminga and the fans who want top return for him.

They sound like kings fans

Question is could he sign a higher 1 year deal (than the QO) somewhere else and really screw their cap? How much of our MLE do we have left? Could we offer him $11-12M on a one year deal and force their hand to match it? Get him a few more million this year than he would have gotten from them on a QO while leaving him in control of the next year as a UFA instead of signing a 2 year deal which could simultaneously building good will with him for the next off season (him being the most recent in a long line of players to "just use the kings as leverage for better deals"). While if they don't match, we have gotten a player on a 1 year deal with our MLE That we were willing to pay more for?

Probably a 3 year MLE with a player option is best he can do, Warriors will match that though. So he'd sign it with a team he probably doesn't have interest in, which is probably why no teams are even trying. We do not want to get matched because that bars us from trading for him for a full year, not just 90 days. Honestly he can just drag it out into the regular season and have nothing to lose.
