Jonathan Kuminga requested a trade immediately upon eligibility as the Warriors seek expiring contracts and are considering multi-team deals before the Feb. 5 deadline.

- Before the Feb. 5 NBA trade deadline, the Los Angeles Lakers could make a push for Kuminga between Jan. 15 and the deadline, while Sacramento's reluctance to move picks complicates talks and Golden State may keep Kuminga if no deal emerges.
