Sacramento reportedly offered Malik Monk and a protected 2030 first-round pick, but Golden State passed.<\/p>\n<p>Kuminga eventually signed a two-year, $48.5 million deal with a team option in Year 2, giving the front office maximum flexibility to either renegotiate next summer \u2014 or deal him.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, it\u2019s still early October. A lot can and likely will change before Jan. 15.<\/p>\n<p>If Kuminga finally locks down a consistent role under Steve Kerr, trade chatter could quiet. If not, expect his name to dominate trade season once again.<\/p>\n<p>Kuminga averaged 15.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 47 games last season, flashing upside but never fully breaking through in Kerr\u2019s rotation.<\/p>\n<p>Looking for the latest NBA Insider News &amp; Rumors?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Be sure to follow <a style=\"color: #ff6a14;\" href=\"https:\/\/hoopswire.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Hoops Wire<\/a> on <a style=\"color: #ff6a14;\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/wirehoops\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">TWITTER<\/a>\u00a0and <a style=\"color: #ff6a14;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/hoopswire\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FACEBOOK<\/a>\u00a0for breaking NBA News and Rumors for all 30 teams!<\/p>\n<p>        <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Getty The Warriors are expected to put forward Jonathan Kuminga on the trade market once he becomes eligible&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":193028,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[557],"tags":[64,63,7227,12991,590,85,58049],"class_list":{"0":"post-193027","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nba","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-jonathan-kuminga","11":"tag-malik-monk","12":"tag-nba","13":"tag-sports","14":"tag-steve-kerr"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/193027","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=193027"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/193027\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/193028"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=193027"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=193027"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=193027"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
