Kuminga, 23 in October, has not quite lived up to his 7th overall in the 2021 Draft billing. However, he has also averaged 15.8 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.3 stocks per game while playing only 25.6 minutes per game over the last two seasons.

The Kings haven't given up in their pursuit of Jonathan Kuminga, but they haven't been able to reach a deal with the Warriors.

Jonathan Kuminga’s contract impasse with the Warriors technically started in late June, when the forward entered free agency after Golden State tendered him a $7.9 million, one-year qualifying offer.
