Warriors agree to send Jonathan Kuminga, Buddy Hield to Hawks for Kristaps Porzingis, AP source says

Golden State traded Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield to Atlanta for Kristaps Porzingis, a 7-foot-2 forward averaging 17.1 points and 36% on 3-pointers, aiming to strengthen their frontcourt.

  • On Wednesday evening, the Golden State Warriors traded Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield to the Atlanta Hawks for Kristaps Porzingis, ESPN's Shams Charania reported.
  • Jonathan Kuminga demanded a trade on Jan. 15 after his playing time diminished and he became a healthy scratch, while his agent Aaron Turner launched a public media tour to seek trading interest.
  • Kristaps Porzingis has played just 17 games this season, averaging 17.1 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.7 assists, but has missed long stretches due to Achilles tendinitis and illness.
  • The Warriors added a 7-foot rim protector who can shoot threes to bolster their frontcourt and playoff push, with no draft picks involved.
  • Less than 24 hours before Thursday's trade deadline, the Warriors ended Jonathan Kuminga's five-season Bay Area tenure and sent Trayce Jackson-Davis to Toronto for a 2026 second-round pick.
