Jonathan Kuminga’s contract talks with the Golden State Warriors remain deadlocked as the 22-year-old weighs a two-year $45m deal with a team option against a $7.9m one-year qualifying offer. Training camp looms with no resolution in sight. Kuminga reportedly wants clarity on his role, wary of being used as a “pawn” after four inconsistent years. Last season he averaged 15.3 points and 4.6 rebounds. The Warriors prefer him signing long-term but risk losing leverage if he chooses the qualifying offer.

Warriors Weigh Options as Kuminga Contract Saga Drags On

Golden State are open to trading Jonathan Kuminga but only for draft picks and young talent, a deal no team has offered. Sacramento and Phoenix showed interest, yet no agreement materialized. The 22-year-old now faces tough contract decisions. Kuminga must either sign a two-year, $45m deal with a team option or accept a one-year, $7.9m qualifying offer. The latter allows free agency in 2026 but limits trade options. The Warriors remain firm as training camp nears.

Jonathan Kuminga and Golden State remain locked in contract talks, with no breakthrough after weeks of stalemate. Kuminga must decide between a two-year $45m deal with team option or a one-year $7.9m qualifying offer for unrestricted free agency in 2026. The Warriors want to avoid Kuminga signing the qualifying offer, which blocks potential trade flexibility. Training camp looms in four weeks, and the Oct 1 deadline for his decision heightens tension. Both sides remain firm, waiting for the other to give in.

Cam Thomas accepted Brooklyn’s one-year, $6m qualifying offer, rejecting bigger multi-year deals to become unrestricted in 2026. His decision could shape Jonathan Kuminga’s contract saga, as both young players weigh short-term pay against long-term leverage. Thomas declined a two-year $30m contract with a team option and another one-year $9.5m deal with incentives. His self-bet sets precedent for Kuminga, who is considering rejecting Golden State’s $45m offer to follow a similar path into free agency.

Golden State Warriors, with only nine contracted players, are linked with free agent Malcolm Brogdon, though insiders predict he may join the Timberwolves instead. Golden State’s inactivity stems from ongoing Jonathan Kuminga issues. Brogdon, recovering from injuries, averaged 12.7 points for Washington last season. He could offer depth and playmaking behind Stephen Curry if signed, though Minnesota remain favourites.

Curry, entering his age-37 season, admitted he is open to coaching after retirement, even envisioning himself as a high school coach to positively impact kids. He continues to cement his Hall of Fame legacy with four titles, two MVPs, and 11 All-Star selections.
Despite missing time with a hamstring injury that hindered the Warriors’ 2024 playoff run, Curry averaged 24.5 points, 6.0 assists, and 4.4 rebounds last season, shooting nearly 40% from deep. He led Golden State past Houston in the first round, proving he still anchors postseason runs effectively.

Restricted free agent Jonathan Kuminga has rejected Golden State’s latest contract offer, prolonging a tense standoff. He’s exploring sign-and-trade options while keeping Golden State’s $7.9M qualifying offer open as leverage for long-term control and starter guarantees.
Kuminga seeks a featured role, which Phoenix and Sacramento have pitched. The Warriors demand a young player and a first-round pick—terms Phoenix can’t match. Golden State’s offseason plans, including targets like Al Horford and Seth Curry, remain stalled until the situation resolves.
