The Sacramento Kings have emerged as the "strongest pursuer" of Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga, but no deal appears imminent, according to The Athletic’s Anthony Slater.

Kuminga — the No. 7 overall pick in 2021 — is a restricted free agent with a qualifying offer of approximately $7.9 million, which grants the Warriors matching rights. Kuminga is reportedly seeking a new deal worth between $25 million and $30 million per year.

Following the end of the 2024-25 season, Steve Kerr's comments essentially clarified that Jonathan Kuminga no longer has a future with the Warriors. The Warriors would've liked to maximize his trade value.
