The Warriors want him back ?
Sign and trade ? What do you think ? The kid has a potential

Brooklyn or Miami

Brooklyn for sure. I think they are holding hope he can be a star away from there and they have the money to spend

Currently my second favorite Warrior but I hope he ends up on another team that gives him consistent minutes

Id like to see him in Miami. Not s heat fan but I enjoy watching them and how they operate.

I assume the Warriors won't let him just walk. They'll either S&T or match.

Maybe I'm just saying this to make their draft make more sense but the Nets didn't draft a wing, don't have a true #1, have the cap space to outbid anyone else, have a history of making huge RFA offers, and the market and role likely appeals to Kuminga more than anywhere else in the league so I think it's almost guaranteed to be the Nets. I think the Nets would choose Kuminga over Thomas so if they get Kuminga it'll be Thomas in a S & T going elsewhere so the Nets get something out of it.

Traore-Demin
Powell-Mann
Kuminga-Whitehead
Johnson-Clowney
Claxton-Wolf

this is a compelling reason to watch for Nets fans. If Traore is as good as I think he is they'll be a very tough team to beat and might fight for the play-in or better. This is a well-constructed and complimentary roster no matter what the haters say.

China in 2-3 years

I think he stays in GS, but its just a guess.

Kings..ST.. they will probably pay more

Dariq Whitehead is more likely to be cut than be in the rotation IMO. Guy is made of glass.

China

Bill Simmons is convinced he ends up at Miami..

Doesn't really push the needle for them or any other team though, think he is a bit overrated

MPJ for Kuminga. Who says no

He’s coming back to gsw at 20m per year or less. Reports that the kings aren’t that interested. Chicago is out now with okoro and Miami is not actively pursuing jk. Nets are looking to take on bad contracts for assets. There’s no suitors for jk. It’ll likely be a drawn out summer for him.

Not a legal trade

I really hope it's not the Nets...

Is there any free agent averaging double digits that Bill Simmons has not mentioned for Miami?

“Kuminga seems like a Riley project… he just does! What do you think Russillo?”

“You know, I’m more impressed with the free agents Miami doesn’t sign”

I don't think Brooklyn is going to offer Kuminga a contract large enough to put GS off and I think a S&T is somewhat complicated to complete because of salary cap rules.

Someone on the trade board mentioned Miami being hard-capped at the 1st apron if Miami S&T'd for Kuminga. If Miami or any team ends up hard-capped (no idea for how long), that will limit what they'll offer Kuminga.

The other part of this equation is Kuminga and his agent seem to think he is worth max or near-max money. GS reportedly offered him in the $25M-$30M/season extension and he turned it down.

All this would seem to indicate he'll accept the QO and play out the season in GS.
