Despite having an inconsistent role throughout the 2024-25 NBA season, Jonathan Kuminga exhibited unwavering commitment to the Golden State Warriors. After finishing 7th in the Western Conference standings, the team achieved a postseason berth, concluding the regular season with 48 wins and 34 losses.
Coming off the bench, Kuminga was instrumental in leading the Warriors to victory in their first-round playoff series against the Houston Rockets. Unfortunately, the Minnesota Timberwolves thwarted the team’s aspirations for a championship in the conference semifinals. After this outcome, speculation regarding Kuminga’s potential trade has intensified. Recently, Warriors General Manager Mike Dunleavy addressed the prevailing uncertainties surrounding Kuminga’s future.
“On both sides, we’d like to get something figured out as soon as possible… from his end, ultimately he is the one as a free agent who has to sign the contract,” Dunleavy said in a recent press conference.
