Jonathan Kuminga and the Golden State Warriors have finally ended their contract standoff, agreeing to a two-year, $48.5 million deal. The agreement avoids the qualifying offer route and keeps the former No. 7 pick under team control for at least this season.
Though the deal includes a team option, reports say it’s essentially a formality and will be declined next summer, making Kuminga an unrestricted free agent. The contract also keeps him tradable, with discussions expected ahead of the deadline once he’s eligible in January.

Golden State Warriors’ media day was overshadowed by Jonathan Kuminga’s unresolved contract situation, with Steve Kerr and GM Mike Dunleavy declining to speak publicly. Kuminga has until October 1 to accept a $7.9m qualifying offer or continue negotiations. Kuminga’s camp wants player options on longer deals, while the Warriors insist on team options. Reports say Golden State offered three years at $75m or two years at $45m, both team-controlled. The standoff threatens roster flexibility as Curry, Green, and Butler’s contracts align.

Golden State have only nine players signed with camp looming, and Jonathan Kuminga’s unresolved contract is delaying moves for Al Horford, De’Anthony Melton, and Gary Payton II. Kuminga averaged 15.3 points last season but remains stuck between a $72.5m deal and a one-year qualifying offer. The team’s offer includes a three-year, $72.5m package with a team option, but his agent concedes signing may make a trade before February inevitable. Kuminga risks surrendering $40m guaranteed if he chooses the qualifying deal, leaving Golden State’s depth in limbo.

Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga remains locked in contract negotiations, with rival teams like Phoenix Suns and Sacramento Kings offering attractive sign-and-trade packages, while Golden State resists including player options in their offers. Sacramento proposed Malik Monk and picks, Phoenix offered $80m+ deals, but Kuminga seeks a player option for flexibility. Golden State countered with a three-year, $72.5m team-option contract. His future hinges on whether the Warriors bend or Kuminga accepts a qualifying offer.

Jonathan Kuminga’s contract negotiations with the Warriors remain stalled, with the forward reportedly having “zero interest” in staying. The Sacramento Kings are circling, having already tested Golden State with trade offers earlier in the offseason. Kuminga’s camp proposed a three-year, $63m player-option deal, but the Warriors countered with a three-year, $75m team-option contract, which was rejected. With the October 1 deadline looming for restricted free agents, his future remains unresolved amid rising tensions.
Al Horford
September 2025
Golden State Warriors are expected to sign veteran big man Al Horford once Jonathan Kuminga’s contract saga is resolved. With just nine players under contract, Horford’s leadership and versatility could address their long-running search for stability at center. Horford, 39, started 42 games for Boston last season, averaging 9 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 36% from three. Forbes reports he would likely start immediately. Despite age concerns, his durability and defense make him a prime fit alongside Curry, Butler, and Green.

The Golden State Warriors remain locked in negotiations with restricted free agent Jonathan Kuminga, with no agreement reached despite a $45 million two-year offer. Phoenix Suns attempted a sign-and-trade, while offering Kuminga an $80–88 million deal to replace Kevin Durant’s role. Warriors rejected Phoenix’s package, insisting Kuminga will have a significant role under Steve Kerr this season. Despite past criticisms of fit, both sides now downplay tensions. The standoff leaves Kuminga’s future uncertain as his camp pushes for security, including a no-trade clause.

With only nine players under contract and Kuminga’s RFA standoff ongoing, Golden State are linked with a reunion for Kelly Oubre Jr. The 76ers reportedly open to movement; Warriors could use a trade exception to add wing scoring. Oubre’s downhill punch and switchable size complement Curry/Hield/Podziemski spacing, even if efficiency fluctuates. If Kuminga opts for the qualifying offer, flexibility tightens; adding veteran athleticism becomes more urgent as camp nears and bench creation remains thin.

With just nine players under contract and Jonathan Kuminga’s deal unresolved, Golden State are eyeing a reunion with Kelly Oubre Jr. Reports suggest Philadelphia are open to moving him, and the Warriors may use their trade exception to bring him back. Oubre averaged 15.3 points with the 76ers last season and remains a downhill threat. Though his efficiency has been questioned, his scoring could bolster the Warriors’ bench. Familiarity from his 2020-21 stint makes him a natural fit as Golden State weigh roster options
