US EditionWarriors, Jonathan Kuminga Still Far Apart in Contract Talks with No Resolution in Sight, per Report
SAN FRANCISCO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, JUL 30 – Restricted free agent Jonathan Kuminga seeks a $30 million annual salary amid stalled negotiations as the Warriors offer a two-year, $45 million deal with team-friendly terms, sources say.
- Reporting from ESPN Wednesday revealed ESPN’s Shams Charania and Anthony Slater reported Kuminga declined a two-year, $45 million offer from the Warriors.
- The impasse arises because Golden State Warriors insist on a team option and Kuminga seeks long-term guarantees beyond a one-year, $7.9 million qualifying offer.
- Multiple teams, including the Sacramento Kings and Phoenix Suns, have not yet made offers, as Kuminga seeks a major payday, ESPN reports.
- His silence has blocked sign-and-trade conversations, causing a standoff that stalls other roster moves, according to ESPN reports.
- With cap space drying up league-wide and Kuminga having until recent dates to sign his qualifying offer, the standoff delays roster moves, ESPN reports.
