What Kings’ latest reported Jonathan Kuminga trade offer to Warriors included originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
It appears the Kings have enhanced their initial sign-and-trade offer to the Warriors for Jonathan Kuminga.
Sacramento has offered a first-round draft pick and a potential rotation player to Golden State, ESPN’s Shams Charania reported Wednesday on “NBA Today.” However, the Warriors are being particular with the type of first-round pick.
The Kings have offered a conditional first-round pick, but the Warriors are asking for a fully unprotected first-round pick, Charania reported, citing sources.
Meanwhile, the Phoenix Suns, who in addition to Sacramento have been the most aggressive in their pursuit of Kuminga, don’t have a first-round pick to trade, so their offer likely would include one or two rotation players and second-round compensation.
Golden State also doesn’t want to take on a bad salary in return, Charania added, and the Warriors don’t want a player they don’t feel has the value moving forward that Kuminga could have.
Sacramento previously offered second-year guard Devin Carter, big man Dario Šarić and two second-round picks to the Warriors, sources told NBC Sports California. But even after the Kings revised their offer, it appears the Warriors still aren’t moved by Sacramento’s offer or any other proposed to them thus far.
“Clearly their asking price has not been met in these potential offers,” Charania said, “and there’s still about a month in a half to two months left before Jonathan Kuminga has a real decision to make with that Oct. 1 qualifying offer.”
The waiting game continues.
